The head of the National Prosecuting Authority brags about the arrest of 700 politicians and others for crimes such as corruption. Can she please tell us what progress there has been in the prosecution of these individuals? Unfortunately the thinking population of the country listen and laugh. We have all heard it before. All words and no action. Crime pays in SA. None or very few of the individuals indicted for these crimes will ever be convicted. They mostly are connected with the governing party and are protected. Transparency does not exist

SHUT DOWN EP RUGBY CIRCUS

What a disgrace of a weekend for EP rugby. The men lost 50-0 and the women lost 120-0. This is living proof that the EPRU needs to be shut down. These teams and the EPRU are an embarrassment to rugby. The men are bad enough, but the women are totally diabolical and border on a comedy show. Some of the players are so huge they can hardly move. The flyhalf couldn’t even get the ball off the ground when drop-kicking and on one occasion failed to reach the 10m line. Laughable! Why is money and TV time wasted on this circus? What did it cost the EPRU to hire the two jumbo jets to Pretoria?
