Yawn …. "outrage". If you can't debate & engage in constructive dialogue your next option is to thump your chest, make guteral sounds and be "outraged".
This news is sponsored by South Afristaan.
South Africa can make it's own decisions in terms of foreign policy. So can the Western allies in terms of economic support, safety of citizens and our own best interests in our response. The travel advisory is old news.
It was issued in 2022? And we have only noticed it now?
It's s strange how people from here still go to the UK for jobs, but are very critized by the very same people who do that, against the West!!
We need more independence of our economy, it has comeback to bite us being consumer economy rather than a productive manufacturing one. Business sector leader are concerned about the jobs that could be lost, rather than injustice happening right in front of our eyes. BRICS, and African trade amongst itself is the solution, a counter balance.
This guy sounds like the Russian analysts just before the terrorists hit them. They were also warned!
Dont forget we have terrorists pretending as refugees from war torn countries,the warning might be true
Another propaganda from the west.
To me I see no reason for terrorism in South Africa, I'd assume terrorists respects south Africa because SA is cool with everyone in the middle east or Muslim countries,since most of terrorists claim to be Muslim but then there's the issue of money if the right ppl fund them yeah we doomed
Sa has no other news …… listen don't listen. Always playing down these warnings cos their brains are on the money sorry uk and us
Your friends. Iran, hamas, sponsor rerrorism. Soon they will bring their madness here. .
Better Safe then Sorry. Look what happened in Russia. UK has all the right to warn its own citizens.
This is old news, been a couple of months since they issued this and the rate of crime now they see no need to take it down.
But who takes UK seriously? They are just the US dormat.
ANC is a terrorist criminal organisation and should be banned around the world
Well said Dr Ahmed
What utter rubbish south african goverment are all one sided we as ordinary south africans do not support terrorists organizations we all do not support humas
Western hypocrisy
But why do we expect someone to be nice to us when we keep messing with their alias? I wouldn't want to befriend, do business with, or give that person a discount in my store (as with the AGOA trade agreement) if they messed with my friends or family.
Foolish nations
Government support criminality and i remember this warning being issued in 2022 after USA issued a warning of a possible terror attack which made UK and many others avoi SA for safety its not new… SA is currently 2nd/170 in homocides and 1st in kidnapping in africa so UK should maybe update that list. Lets not forget how a British doctor taking a wrong turn into a black community lead to his death and SA only reported on it after it was already international news… Hiding that racism and attacks on tourists typical…
The criminal ANC government should have been first to warn ALL visitors NOT to travel to South Africa….South Africa is the murder, rape and kidnapping for ransom capital of the world… The roads are also amongst the deadliest in the world with hundreds of people being killed by unlicensed, drunk and aggressive drivers every year…
More innocent civilians are violently murdered in South Africa than is killed in the wars in Ukraine and Gaza COMBINED! If you value your life, STAY AWAY!
Aren’t they master minds behind ISIS they used to pursue colour revolution destabilisation of North Africa and Mid East?
