Can the Minister of Finance lawfully repeal South Africa’s 1961 Exchange Control Regulations and replace them with an entirely new Capital Flow Management framework? LFN believes this is not merely a technical drafting issue, but a fundamental question of constitutional legality and the rule of law. In its formal submission to National Treasury, LFN raises concerns that section 9(1) of the Currency and Exchanges Act, read together with the Interpretation Act and confirmed by the Constitutional Court, vests the regulation-making power in the President, not the Minister. Before South Africa embarks on a new era of exchange control, the public deserves a clear answer: who really has the legal authority to rewrite the rules?

On a short drive along the N1 from Acasia to Midrand, my family and I encountered two separate intoxicated drivers — late morning, on a busy highway, still drinking while driving. That moment, together with recent revelations about South Africa’s R25 billion illicit alcohol underworld, forced a hard reckoning. This is not an abstract debate about “responsible drinking”. It is a confrontational call to South Africans to reconsider alcohol’s role in our crime, violence, family breakdown, moral erosion, and even our ability to resist corruption — starting now, at the beginning of the year.

The World’s Richest: A Closer Look Behind the Forbes Curtain

Each year, the world turns to the Forbes Rich List as if it were sacred scripture — but beneath the glitter lies a carefully crafted illusion. Participation is voluntary, valuations are speculative, and some of the wealthiest families on Earth are nowhere to be seen. What we’re really witnessing is not a reflection of global wealth, but a spectacle of status, curated for entertainment, profit, and control. It’s time to ask: who decides what counts as ‘rich’ — and why does it matter?

Emancipation Scams: A Fast Track to Losing Your Home

Liberty Fighters Network (LFN) cautions the public against so-called “emancipation” schemes by entities like You Are Law and Anne Verster. These scams falsely promise that court filings can cancel debt and stop repossessions — they don’t work. Victims have lost homes and farms, while the banks continue with auctions undeterred. Courts do not accept emancipation or “Bills of Exchange” as legal defences. LFN is fighting back — currently in the High Court, Johannesburg in the Falecia Mvenya case to expose systemic bias. We assist many, free of charge, but rely only on voluntary support. Don’t fall for false hope. Fight lawfully.

Are South Africa’s Murder Figures Inflated? A Critical Analysis of Crime Data Integrity and Judicial Reliability

South Africa’s murder statistics paint a picture of a country in constant crisis — with nearly 75 murders reported each day. But is this truly the reality on the ground? With a collapsing forensic system, low conviction rates, and inconsistent investigative procedures, many of these figures raise more questions than answers. This article critically examines whether South Africa’s murder rate is being inflated by misclassifications, media selectivity, and a failing justice system — and whether the real crime lies in the integrity of the data itself.
