Bullying BRICS – Donald Trump says it’s the dollar or nothing. Later, shrinking economies and shrinking inflation. We make sense of it all.

With nearly 20 000 households surveyed – consisting of roughly 50% men and 50% women from all walks of life – it serves as a serious wake-up call to government.

Out-of-control incidents of food poisoning push the President to address the nation. Then, violence erupts once more in Mozambique. Later, the SAPS is watching – your TikToks, that is. But first, as taps begin to run dry in parts of Johannesburg, some are sounding the alarm… With about 35% of the metro’s drinkable water lost due to leaks and illegal connections, city management is quickly running out of road to turn things around.
