We only have until 2 October to object to Eskom’s plan to increase electricity prices by 8,83%. If enough of us send in public comments explaining why we can’t afford a price increase, NERSA, the electricity regulator, may have the evidence it needs to reject Eskom’s plan.

Did you know that Universal Basic Income (UBI) would act as a large economic stimulus as well as social protection? South Africa, with its high inequality, is the perfect place to implement this policy which would partly pay for itself Read our report with @amandlamobi.bsky.social: bit.ly/4rzcQoS
