First Paul writes These emails are very appreciated.  I sense that a largish court case could make its way in her direction soon. They are going to have to something about these codes – another verification agency told me that all the QSE’s they’ve verified have come up non-compliant. Then the reader says Yes I […]

We ain’t never going to survive unless we are a little litigious

Leave a Comment / 2012 COGP, Apartheid style legislating, Rob Davies, zoomoron /

A persistent question arises from the chamber’s affidavit: why did it not at the time contest the second iteration of the charter implemented in 2010 when it contends so strongly in the affidavit how unhappy it was with some of the clauses? It does make the point that it did not sign the 2010 charter.

awdoz’ fingerprints appear to be on the new job reservation act

When certain things upset me I phone the whole world and look for company.  I found it in the area of Cape Town.  The conversation went like Him – "so it's 51% black ownership using the flow-through principle?".   Me – "yes". Him – "you know who drafted this document then?" Me – "sounds like

bolshie bob wants to revitalise apartheid legislation

They say that those in power eventually revert to the ways of their former opponents or oppressors. It was Pete Townsend who carved those immortal lines "meet the new boss, just like the old boss" into rock history in 1971.  This is an application of "the more things change, the more they stay the same".

Rob gets a car, Shaun gets a hospital pass and Bolshie Bob shows his Abrahams mettle

Leave a Comment / 2012 COGP, Rob Davies /

Two Rob mentions in a title.  This pic is taken from the DTI's website, it shows Rob taking delivery of his new Toyota, which was locally manufactured.  I'm not going to bother with a link, suffice to say that Rob's Bolshieness is fading somewhat.  But once again I digress. Today we heard the Zuma patsy

Bolshie Bob wants our vodka to be strong like mother Russia – so strong that it impairs his ability to read and be rational

Leave a Comment / Liquor Licences, Rob Davies /

There’s an oldish adage which says that anyone at 20 who is not a socialist has no heart, and anyone at 40 who is still a socialist has no head. From this you can safely conclude that Rob Davies, our Minister of Trade and Industry, is in an arrested state of development. In the presence

New codes on the cheap – not likely. Want more of this then vote ANC

Leave a Comment / 2012 COGP, 2016, Rob Davies, Skills Development /

Not that I have ever voted for the DA.  It doesn't matter who I vote for, what does matter is why.  I vote because I want to reduce the ANC's power.  I once heard the Helen Zille would love to vote for the ANC, she feels that the ANC should have been a good home

[E]mployment opportunities are accessible to people only where they live.  The objective of the EE Act is not to induce racial migrations to accommodate the statistics.  Its objective is accessibility of employment opportunities and it achieves that objective only if it takes account where applicants for the posts are located.  Statistics that serve as a

Trust – something we don’t have in the DTI (they don’t trust us either)

Leave a Comment / 2012 COGP, FSC, Rob Davies /

Merriam Webster defines the word Trust as "belief that someone or something is reliable, good, honest, effective, etc." Do we have any reason to trust Bolshie Bob and his band of untrustworthy souls? (I frantically looked for an apt Commie Russian word for Bolshie's minions but I lack that communist thing). We don't. I don't
