BBC getting to accustomed to spreading lies and deceit across the world. Twisting stories for narrative, withholding important information and context to sway perception. We see you BBC. All journalistic credibility has vanished.
😂😂😂😂 Lies lies lies.
I refuse to have the BBC say my government is inactive but once it takes action suddenly it's a problem we don't have the resources to pay our problems away
Woww The BBC in the UK as Usual Spinning their Own Fantasy Story. The Miners are ILLEGAL FOREIGNERS. It's Not ROCKET SCIENCE BBC NEWS. ILLEGAL FOREIGNERS in the UK gets Deported Everyday. So the Same Goes For Illegal Miners in South Africa and Any Other Country. STOP changing the NARRATIVE to Suit the UK Television Viewers.
As per normal you main stream media keep reporting lies, they are not trapped, they are refusing to come out. They are heavily armed illegal foreigners. I have no remorse for these criminals. They terrorise the communities with in the area. I support the government here 100%.
BBC has become a disgrace.
BBC reporting false information to millions of viewers every single day…BOYCOT BBC!!!
"LITERALLY TRYING TO MAKE ENDS MEET" WHILE IN FACT COMMITTING CRIME MINING ILLEGALLY AND ALSO HEAVILY ARMED, COMPLETELY AND OPENLY DISRESPECTING THE LAW AND RESISTING ARREST BY REFUSING TO RESURFACE. JUST CAN'T STAND THE MEDIA SOMETIMES AND MORE SO OUR CONSTITUTION.
THEY ARE NOT TRAPPED… 👎🏻😠
NOBODY CLOSED ANY ENTRANCES!!
The illegal miners are CHOOSING to REMAIN underground rather than facing justice…
These illegal miners are HEAVILY ARMED! You can't send rescue workers down there without the necessary protection!
These miners are keeping themselves hostage…
They are refusing to come out so this is a stand-off situation no one is trapped. We cant promote lawlessness.
U can’t give jobs to people but sell your land to multinationals and still u remove black illegal miners and use the name of apartheid in elections u r just monkeys who r in power
Miners targeted! What rubbish reporting.
Where did they get all the viniger and toothpaste? You all can give one a good laugh.
Good. Crime is crime, dont make it out as anything else.
(?!…)
Misinformation
jesus, this is next level bullshit journalism.
They're are not volunteers but the families of those illegal miners
What kind of toilets are they using down there ?
They refused to come out lol. It may sound off topic but I chanced on this cool translator that does everything and more of what a translator should have, name is Immersive Translate and one thing that can really help is it’s new feature, which lets you create a custom AI expert for translating anything. Thank me later, it's gold.
Righty yeah I see . I did the same and I added an elastic band to the tooth paste, to make home made chewing gum.
BBC always making stuff up.
IF ONLY OUR GOVT TREATED ILLEGALS AS CRIMINALS
WE SHOULD TREAT OUR GOVT AND ALL IS SPOKEPERSONS GUILTY OF DECEIT WITH MISINFORMATION DISINFORMATION AND OUTRIGHT LIES
SMASH THE BBC FASH
They must come out and get locked up.
Being from SA, I would raise this likelihood: there might in fact be miners who are ready to surrender and come out , but others who are in possession of deadly weapons not permitting that to happen 😢(it’s possible)
SAns lets mass report BBC misleading information
Why africans have no love
All this people need to go back to their country
