Made me smile, my mate from South Africa20 Jan 2020 20:46
This is my mate from South Africa (now permanently resident in the U.K.) replying to a social media thread to friends about BBC News being all doom and gloom :))
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Better than South African NEWS.... News like the country is bankrupt, the police service bankrupt, violent crime up 1000% in 5 years, the electric department bankrupt, local councils are bankrupt, water department bankrupt, South African Airways bankrupt, Revenue serves bankrupt, road funding bankrupt yet the government members all earn millions in bonuses and they pay £6000 for a cake, one simply made cake... They all own cars and houses worth millions and all their family, uncles and aunties and cousins are all earning millions.. but the country is bankrupt... And while they are living it up South African farmers are being Murdered and violently beaten. Every week, EVERY WEEK, two to four South African farmers are murdered or violently beaten.. Strange but that never makes the news in South Africa...
Now suddenly you look up at the news here and it is like a love story..... I love the news here mate. That means I have power being supplied to my house and at any time I can go get a cup of tea because the water is always running...
Look at me spreading happiness where ever I go lol :))
