I moved to PE from Cape Town in March 2016. Trollip came into mayorship in that August/September. I saw the difference myself over the next 2 years (and I went all over from the suburbs to townships etc.). Sadly, it went went thanks to political clowns who got rid of him.....

Hearing this man speak gave me a great deal of enlightenment.

Incredible insight! I haven't voted since coming back from London 9 years ago, I didn't see the point, i will definitely be voting in 2024. The change is happening, the change is now.

What i can say very boldly, without fear or favor, is that ANC today is full of Killers, murderers, fraudsters and Drug lords and they know that very well, even human trafficking is happening among the members of this heartless organization. Lastly i want to appeal to all those who are genuinely God fearing and law abideth citizens to distance themselves from these nefarious criminals.

We finally turned a corner ten years ago. dont lose hope for ypur future. Detroit was unrivalled in manufacturing, highest rate of both millionaires and privately owned homes. We had the most national corporate headquarters. Free market worked for workers and owners. The American middle class was built in places like Detroit. There are so many paralles between my experiences here and many events and developments in South Africa. I have great fondness for South Africa. I am also a Christian and will pray to Our Lord to grant South Africa and all her people with life, liberty and prosperity.

I hear you sir and I also concur with the fact ANC has failed and it does not look like they will ever resolve anything. This is serious but also more serious are the past injustices committed by the fathers of these DA gentlemen who are now trying to "save" the day just because their economy is shaking but we as black people do not have an economy. We are struggling from industry to industry, you cannot point me to an industry where black people actually have a meaningful stake. Even migrants have better slices of south African economy than citizens. We are not xenophobic but our rights to thrive has been crushed. But my concern is about "white supremacy" which is still prevalent. These DA patriots are not discussing reparations and correcting the issues of the past. When i say white, i am NOT referring to fellow white south africa in context. I am always referring to the white supremacy thing. Voting DA is equal to voting white supremacy. This is worse than what ANC has done so far. If South Africa is not working for them they can go to other countries. We as the black community must think about future. We really do not want to had over the country to white supremacists. We have heard their points but let them start by discussing how we are going to resove the past. What about the land and transformation. I think we are truly uniting against ANC but to no real agreement. We as black people should leverage the situations. If we are going to fix, let us fix the past that ANC failed to fix. But now it must be done by us Black South African as the most victimized. Must black people remain economic slaves? As you look at the pace of business and technology, we have an almost impossible situation as black people. I may be doing well as an individual but as you zoom deeper I am in a constant battle because there is no real economy amongst my people.

Team of Rivals is my favourite book of all time. The only book I’ve ever read more than once. Highly recommended!

What I liked about Athol is he's one of the first people I've come across that looks at examples set in history and known examples of how to do things, if you really look into the quotes and books mentioned there's a lot of quotes and experiences one can learn from without having to go through the same experiences. lee kuan yew is probably the best example of that, it's the first time I've heard any South African politician speak about him and he's probably one of the greatest leaders in history that took literally a swamp and converted it into what we know today in Singapore.

What an amazing speech really enjoyed listening

"Who do I vote for cause there is no party yet with people of integrity." In politics, the only thing we can hope to achieve is to choose the lesser of two evils. You are correct, no political party will ever be 100% honest or transparent. I know that as well. But there is only one reason why I will vote in 2024 - to hold the ANC accountable. The main reason why corruption has gotten so bad in this country is simply because the ANC has never had anything to fear - people keep voting for them, so why should they worry? Only when they face real consequences for their actions (ie. at the ballot box) will they start realizing that they are in trouble, and seriously need to change their ways. And this applies to any political party, whether it's the ANC, the DA, the EFF or whoever. When any of them mess up, we need to let them know at the ballot box! 🗳 Who should you vote for? Only you can make that decision. Personally I'm considering the DA, or possibly ActionSA. Yes, they are not perfect either. But like I said, we are not looking for perfect - we are looking for the lesser of two evils. Who knows? Maybe they will end up surprising us. But if they don't, there's always next election - we, the people, decide their fates, and they know that.

Why don't u invite other parties to have a balanced view in things?

Herman Mashaba is the South African Donald Trump of this 2024 campaign.

As an Indian we haven’t had any voice and have been tarnished by Guptagate. In conjunction with this is us not belonging. My pride for the country has diminished and I really don’t believe that there is an honest bone in politics or hope to rid the rot. Atol a beautiful vision but sadly not realistic. Goodluck I getting people to vote.

WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT 🙄. "All hail the great and powerful Atholl Trollop!" Now what? Knowing the truth and acting on a truth are two completely different things. It's not enough that you all see the problem, you are going to have to motivate the unconvertable to not only vote but to vote for somebody else in the 2024 elections. This is doable. If you all follow this approach. The so-called adults in South Africa (most have a child like mentality) have become discouraged and disinterested in the voting system. You can not change their minds. Trust me, I've tried for years. However. There may be a loophole. Their Children's Future. It's a long shot, I know. I've tested with THE THREE QUESTIONS. Do you love your children? Would you die for your children? Would you vote for your children's future? 🤔. It appears that I have hit a nerve with this thought process. So.. what I suggest everybody starts doing is offering the following advice whenever possible. Do your due diligence and examine each party and select the one that you believe will work for your children's future. Keep pushing "You're children's future." It seems 😕 amazingly enough that parents in this country, after 28 years of no voting, actually may care for their children's future 🙄. Who knew? It surprised me as well, I know. Can you imagine being an 18 year old child asking your parents if they voted for your future and the parents reply. 🙄 "We only voted in 1994". I would love to be a fly on the wall in that room. Anyway, this is the only and correct way to change the mindset of a nation. Use it. Don't use it. But I will still send out these little motivation talks to the common man. I find it most refreshing.
