Courts again uphold human dignity & rule of law in #mzansi. ANC - African National Congress will appeal, accusing liberal judiciary of being out of touch. Meanwhile, they're secretly relieved all those teachers and nurses can stay at work. ewn.co.za/2023/06/28/mot…

Shout out to SA Revenue Service for effectively draining my will to live. 3 hours telephone queing before surly operator cut the call when my query didn't fit her script. Seems you don't always get what you pay for.

Pleased to be able to share this important discussion with such impressive and dedicated colleagues. It is not about the acute horrors we see elsewhere these days, but the quotidian forms of discrimination and exclusion that make them possible. ACMS Wits University ODID Mobility Governance Lab

A fantastic collaborative effort drawing together #migration scholars and visual artists to compile a counter-cartography of #African #mobility.

Always a delight to speak w/ ACMS Wits University doctoral candidate Silindile Mlilo. Even more so when its about the future of #migration studies & engaging the public & policy makers on one of our time's most contentious issues. ODID Mobility Governance Lab IMISCOE imiscoe.org/news-and-blog/…

Spent the day with SA Revenue Service in their artic Randburg facility. 7 hours waiting for something that should have taken 10 minutes online. This after 20 hours of phone calls. I'll send you my hourly rate. Please deduct from my taxes.

Congrats to Miss le Roux. Undoubtedly an inspiration. Just wondering if her ancestors managed to get local permission when they moved to S.A.? Chardonnay, yes. Egusi, no. bbc.com/news/articles/…
