BIG BUCKS STRIKE WE have just celebrated Freedom Day . . . the striking Big Bucks workers should remember that they are not indentured labour and if the terms of working for Wayne Parry doesn’t please them, they should simply vote with their feet and look for a job that suits them better. Similarly, Mr Parry is free to give whatever he pleases to whatever charities he chooses.

REPLIES TO READERS’ COMMENTS “JUSTICE for Jayde”, Marius Stander is as good a prosecutor as Gerrie Nel.

WATER WASTAGE WATER is running down Acacia Avenue by the thousands of litres per hour, if not per minute for the last month. Surely councillors and municipal personnel have used that road. Please stop this waste of precious water.
