As someone whose ancestors fought for half a century for a better South Africa, I find this utterly infuriating.
The ANC created an annual holiday to commemorate a police massacre of 91 people in 1960 yet in 2026 celebrates a regime whose police just slaughtered 30,000+ protesters in a few days.

It's hard to read this and fathom that this is a communication from a LABOUR government. The language is full-blown Tory.
For context: Why should they be required to pass an A-level standard, when I do not to engage in my studies?

Learned a new word, listening to the next table along at a pub. A gen z'r talking, on what sounded like a first date, about how they would get high and "trauma dump" about trauma, during a conversation where they spent 90% of the time talking about himself rather than their rather beautiful date..
