Can't read past the headline without 😡

SA does not support human rights around the world, instead it supports Russian aggression, Chinese labour camps, North Sudan abuses, Myanmar dictators. SA should not be allowed to join UN HRC, should be banned for own abuses inside the country, failure to implement TRC findings

They deeply dislike nations that support Russia

Equality among races? She is definitely not talking about south Africa? Her ANC government is constitutionally obligated to represent all race groups on a equal bases feel the need to implemented race based labour laws BEE to deny white minority youth access to labour market?😠⚖️

SA seeks membership of the UN Human Rights Council but also stand by Russia and its human rights abuse in Ukraine?

Remember ALL human rights abuses have 'some kind of justification behind them'...

Will be a big mistake....

No they won't.... It does not suit their narrative of keeping division alive, and their grubby paws on the treasury...

All for the great consistency you have demonstrated all these while. Beginning this journey I deposited R5 000. capital and 5days I got a return of R155 000. I am so happy because I can now start up my new business. Deirdremerson
