I honestly feel for my colleague and friends as front line workers risking their lives daily with COVID patients with no sight of a vaccine for them. Russian roulette with your life.Two types on intervention, one pharmaceutical which seems if believable a years time, to other non pharmaceutical lockdowns, and non pharmaceutical is at level 3.

Expect LEVEL 5 ON STEROIDS SOONER THAN LATER

these people " talking" - were they inebriated?

Clear drive back from Clarens to Pretoria.
Did take smaller roads but no blocks or disruption.
We did consider we were returning with some alcohol from the initial trip.
We thought surely it would not be illegal to take your own drinks home ?
With a fine??
Another classic rule 😷😢

Very sad to read the Gerry (Gerry and Pacemakers) passed away, gave us some classics over the years

RIP

Plus PLEASE Cyril and your hitmen get the Vaccine for the front line staff.

You OWE them big time 🙏

Scotland in full lockdown from midnight tonight. This is going to getting far worse before it starts getting better.

Can I ask a selfish question under these extreme times.

With full lockdown can you still purchase alcohol to consume at home?
Can you buy cigarettes?

I could almost understand that cigs are bad for lungs, that appears ok to our Government now, but was major problem a few weeks ago.

During these difficult times don't you feel Cyril could give some relief to his unbelievable loyal subjects.
Or is it just one way traffic; take take take ......???
Demand demand demand .....
Fine fine fine and jail ....

With exception of his own top team who appear untouchable no matter what the magnitude of their crimes.😢😷

Plus where is the money for the Vaccine?

The front line workers are dying and putting their lives on the line daily as you (ANC) just keep wheeling and dealing.

Ps yes I am now mentally disturbed...

alcohol sales ban is simply to prevent persons under the affluence of incohol from filling the emergency wards in hospitals - and it works

One thing that`s been consistent throughout this whole thing is the agony the health workers are having to be put through.

Another announcement on the way, or possibly an explanation?

Sleep well all

So what can we expect from the brain trust?

I actually have no idea.

They are fighting the tobacco ban after cig company won the case .

Drinks would be reasonable for breweries to have a strong case to allow home consumption.

Getting the Vaccine is another story??

Border post chaos.

Lets see what happens and if there is any logic coming with the announcement.

Priority remains to get help to front line workers and a detailed plan on where and how this will happen and to make sure his top team is not sticking hands in yet another cookie jar 🙏😷
