(answer : 1 yea...Why are so many returning then ? <br /><br />(answer : 1 year gap year like just about everyone else I know...what do I win ? I've also lived in 3 other countries for a long period.)<br /><br />And people do hate it and do want to come back.But all the alarmism in the media paints a gloomy picture that as someone who lives in S.A I find absurd. I wish to change this perception so that good resouceful South Aficans can return. I don't want to say "hey it's sunshine and rainbows" here...I just want to say...hey it's a lot better than the media is making out and consistantly improving ...come home ! <br /><br />I mean South Africa is not the number 1 destination of the U.K gap year kids. I meet lots of these and they all love it here. Many report wanting to come back and settle down here. It's like we're swopping our populations. 20 000 brits emmigrate here each year. Brit accents are everywhere around these days too. They don't have the apartheid baggage that fuels older south africans panaoid imaginatons. So why should you lot spite yourrselves and live in such suhuman conditions ? <br /><br />No maids...extremely high cost of living , terrible weather, rude children, people who treat you like you're some kind of boorish moron because you're South African ? No thanks.

Changed your mind since you might not get some pounds? I know plenty of people who are living in the UK and are loving it and refuse to come back, so yet more utter rubbish splurred out by you. Oh by the way its a choice, so logic sense states if people really hated the UK and would love to come back to SA, they would! Your logic is completely and utterly wrong! As for quality of life in the UK being terrible, that is more complete hog wash. I would love to know, since you are an expert on the UK, how much time have you actually spent in the UK? And no, not for a holiday or business trip, but actually living in the UK? My bet is not 1 single day, so again you have NO room to talk at all, since you haven't got the faintest clue what it is like to live in the UK.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1226267430376629917.post-8477523495767971082009-07-25T10:07:29.092+02:002009-07-25T10:07:29.092+02:00i know this is off topic but

AWB was better than ANC’, and “We vo...is this true<br /><br />AWB was better than ANC’, and “We vote for better life, not for worse.We live like pigs’ <br /><br /> Indeed, many journalists reporting on the Thokoza unrests – where this photograph above was taken by Shayne Robinson of The Star in Johannesburg, must have realised that this was the ultimate insult to the ANC-leadership: black voters in Thokoza had voted overwhelmingly in favour of the presidency of Jacob Zuma, yet there they were just months later -- stating that South African blacks would be better-off under the rabidly white rightwingers in the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging than they now are under ANC-rule. <br /><br />Of course it’s irrelevant that the AWB never ruled the country... this sign expresses a very intense and genuine anger felt by these black voters.<br /><br />Over the past three elections, these many millions of black voters have repeatedly been promised a golden future which included jobs, free housing, free electricity, lower food-prices, better schools… Instead, they are still ‘living like pigs’, as the other poster next to it, states so clearly. <br />Also note the large number of weapons in the hands of these protestors, from bricks to heavy metal rods. <br />AS noted earlier, this photograph was taken by Shayne Robinson of The Star in Johannesburg, (cell 27767318361, w 27116332231 ) http://mybroadband.co.za/photos/showphoto.php/photo/11619. It’s unclear whether his own newspaper published this picture, judging from its own published pages reporting the story (left), they may not have done. <br /><br />Reuters journalist Michael Georgy reported from the scene that the protesters hurled stones at police, who fired back teargas and rubber bullets (on Wednesday July 21 and 22 2009) -- “after thousands marched in a show of anger at poor services and a lack of jobs.” This journalist did not however note the contents of this poster, but does note: <br /><br />“While anger was largely directed at local officials, there was also unhappiness with the government of the ruling African National Congress, which has ruled since the end of apartheid in 1994. "This government is rotten to the core," said Bongani Mazibuko, unemployed for years… <br />“They have intensified uncertainty after a wave of strikes in Africa's biggest economy”,” Reuters comments. “The unrest, with scenes reminiscent of violence against foreigners last year that killed 62 people, also undermined South Africa's hope of showing a positive image with less than a year to go before the soccer World Cup..’<br /><br />Reuters wrote that protesters pelted cars with stones and blocked a highway near Johannesburg. At Siyathemba township, 90 km (55 miles) southeast of the city, other protesters were also demanding jobs and better schools, clashing with police and threatening the local mayor. And matters are going to get even worse: municipal workers now are also threatening to strike – which will make ‘service delivery’ come to a dead-halt. <br /><br />Farm invasions: <br />“Protests turned violent for a second day in Johannesburg's Thokoza township, where residents are demanding better housing and services. Thirty-five residents are due to appear in court. Residents in Meyerton, south of Johannesburg, occupied the (now state-owned, historic Pielies Farm) - in invasions similar of those in neighbouring Zimbabwe. They were protesting at being evicted from their temporary settlement.” <br /><br />story has been on sa sucks and other sitesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
