Whites Excluded by Law in South Africa! Even Emergency Covid19 Relief Funds Withheld from Whites by the ANC Black Majority Government!

Posted on Leave a comment

“THE STRUGGLE” for Black Supremacy: The ANC regime have officially become what they allegedly fought against, by legislating race based regulations! Despite legal challenges, the Department of Tourism has announced that its “if you are white, you are out” assistance package, of R1, 2 Billion is to proceed and whites will officially be excluded!

Accusing the ANC of Black Supremacism, Dirk Hermann of Solidarity Trade Union has said that race – only giving opportunities to black people – is clearly a super right in South Africa, which is not even subjected to any lockdown.

This was Mr. Hermann’s reaction after Solidarity and Afriforum had a fruitless meeting with the Department of Tourism where they tried to persuade them to drop the exclusion of white owned small businesses from the Department of Tourism’s new assistance fund for the tourism sector of R 1,2 billion.

If You’re White, You’re Out! Barloworld Defends & Continues its Systemically Racist Lay Off Programme!

Posted on Leave a comment

Black Monopoly Capital: Encouraged by racist courts, Barloworld is continuing to lay off staff simply because they are white, while Solidarity vows to intensify legal action after bringing an urgent application against Barloworld Equipment in the Labour Court, to challenge Barloworld’s consultation process during its recent race based retrenchment process.

According to Solidarity, Barloworld which manages brands like Avis, Caterpillar, Perkins, CAT, Timber24, etc., did not consult properly regarding the selection criteria used in order to decide which of its employees would be retrenched, because the selection criteria for retrenchments include, among other things, retrenchments based on race.

Willie Venter, deputy general secretary of the Metal & Engineering Industry at Solidarity said “We are extremely disappointed with the unfair way in which Barloworld handled the process. The fact that they have now laid off more workers on th

ANC Regime Use Their SABC Propaganda Arm to Trick Afrikaans RSG Listeners into Donating to ANC’s Solidarity Fund Which Excludes Whites!

Posted on Leave a comment

The ANC are using their propaganda platform, the SABC which broadcasts Radio Sonder Grense (RSG) in Afrikaans, to deceptively and fraudulently solicit funds for their CCPvirus Solidarity fund, using the name of the Solidarity Trade Union who operate a charity called “Helpende Hand”. The ANC regime is busy with deliberate deceit and misrepresentation in their Solidarity Fund advertisement on their RSG Radio, where they are trying to get white Afrikaans speaking listeners to part with their money, for the ANC’s very racist Solidarity Fund, using the name of the Solidarity Trade Union for their fund and also including the name of Solidarity Trade Union’s charity, “Helpende Hand” in the advertisement!

The ANC are attempting to swindle and deceive people to give money to a government fund, which will allocate funds according to ANC rules. That means that if you are white, you are out. It is bad enough that they call it the Solid

Solidarity Trade Union & Afriforum Challenge Ramaphosa in Court to Stop Being Racist About Covid-19 Relief for Businesses!

Posted on Leave a comment

Solidarity has directly challenged Ramaphosa to drop the racial BBBEE criteria for COVID-19 assistance to businesses in a letter sent on Saturday, to intervene in the Department of Tourism’s decision, to only give assistance to people who qualify under the ANC’s race based BBBEE policy for COVID-19 relief.

The Department of Tourism has made R200 Million available to small and medium sized businesses in the tourism industry, as a relief fund during the COVID-19 lockdown period. These include all businesses in the sector like guest houses, but the minister of Tourism has said that this assistance will only go to people who qualify under BEE and “economic transformation”, which is the ANC’s code for black people only.

Solidarity and Afriforum will be in court on Tuesday to challenge the decision. They have now asked Ramaphosa to rather intervene to make sure that assistance can go to everyone, irrespective of race. If the mat

Motor industry may be crippled by imminent strikes – unreasonable demands from unions could lead to withdrawal of manufacturers from SA and job losses

Posted on Leave a comment

Strikes could soon paralyze car manufacturers in South Africa if an agreement is not reached with the trade union Numsa soon.

The first round of talks failed, and a second attempt was envisaged, but the demands made by the union left a red light for the future of the industry.

The first round of talks in Port Elisabeth ended in stalemate after the Numsa negotiators demanded a 20% increase.

A next round of negotiations will be held in Pretoria, and the warning has already been heard that another failed round of negotiations will mean a strike that will affect all manufacturers.

The National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) represents the bulk of workers in the industry, and the Automobile Manufacturers Employers Organization (AMEO) is poised to start a second round next week.

Experts have warned that unreasonable demands by unions could lead to the withdrawal of manufacturers from South Africa, and could move to countries where s

Amcu’s latest claims absurd – monthly salary remuneration and fringe benefits amount to a total of R30 000 for workers

Posted on Leave a comment

The Amcu trade union demands a R17,000 a month compensation for platinum mine workers, and negotiations will be difficult to deal with regarding the rage that the claims has caused amongst mining houses.

The Stilwater mine currently pays miners R12,500 a month and and this has already affected the mine’s profitability, negatively .

The claimants say they expect R17,000 because of inflation and they will not settle for less.

The remuneration of those who receive the least wage is R11,500 per month, and the claim is that it is only a drop in the ocean of what the Chief Executive Officer earns per hour.

The union also demands fringe benefits such as housing subsidy, medical benefits, transport and in total it should amount to R30,000 per worker per month.

Experts say that if this demands are met, this will be the end of the mining era in South Africa, for the reason that mining houses is on the verge of closure, and the only pro

Posted on Leave a comment

Trade union Solidarity has announced plans to roll out a R4.5 billion ‘network of work’ project, which will build alternative educational and work opportunities.

The project, called the Solidarity NetWork, will include a comprehensive alternative school system, an occupational training college, a university, financial aid for education, a youth movement, a network of occupational guilds, mentorships, job placement, protection in the workplace, and continued education, the group said.

The aim of the network is to accompany its members throughout their whole career path, said Dr Dirk Hermann, chief operations officer of Solidarity.

“The Solidarity NetWork is a major leap into the future. Although emigration has become a focal point of discussion again, most of the people remain here. It does not help to become despondent,” he said.

“We have one alternative and that it is to use what we have and build with it. We must take

Num and ANC bumped heads over the restructuring of Eskom, union threatening to shut down power supply

Posted on Leave a comment

The Num trade union is directly in line with government’s suggestion that Eskom should be “unbundled”.

Ramaphosa’s assurance that workers will not lose their jobs is not in line with Pravin Gordhan’s statement that Eskom will offer its workers a severance package.

Num threatened that they would bring the country’s power supply to a halt if there was no clarity about the future of workers.

Meanwhile, Ramaphosa was stranded for hours while waiting for a metro train during the ANC recruitment campaign.

The delay was caused by power failures and poor service by the rail agency.

Gordhan’s statement that heads will be rolling as a vague opportunity considered by political analysts.

The largest number of strikers resigned from the Popcru trade union and established a new union, but it appears that novelty w

Posted on Leave a comment

The trade union Solidarity today announced that the South African Police Service (SAPS), found the Head of Basic Police Development, Major-General Sandra Malebe-Thema guilty of racism.

According to Anton van der Bijl, Head of Legal Service at Solidarity, Malebe-Thema made herself guilty of racist and humiliating remarks towards various training personnel during an event at the SAPS Training Academy in Oudtshoorn, in 2016. Van der Bijl also said that the General stated that there were too many white faces occupying positions in training and that the so-called discrimination against black students will be stopped. “During the same event she also made inappropriate comments about a selected group of personnel’s clothing and weight,” Van der Bijl confirmed.
