		<description><![CDATA[IT IS hard to believe but there is already chatter among fairly senior and well-informed people in Government about whether President Jacob Zuma will see out 2010, let alone his whole term, in office. I must admit I completely underestimated the political damage that the latest baby scandal has done to him. He is trying [...]]]></description>

People like Malema raise the cost of delivery in South Africa – to the detriment of the poor &#8212; because they cannot [...]]]></description>

Nelson Mandela is quite aware that his funeral has already been minutely planned. The BBC has an aircraft ready to leave Stansted Airport for [...]]]></description>

He will have to pull the proverbial rabbit out of his hat. But where is it ? If the country didn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

Needless to say he has managed to persuade one or other press club to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[SO, ESKOM has backtracked on its demand that electricity tariffs rise by 45 per cent immediately. It now says 35 per cent will do.
But it won&#8217;t. It still has to be argued and justified and, frankly, there can&#8217;t be a case for it. Not a real case. That&#8217;s because Eskom&#8217;s acting CEO, Mpho Makwana, revealed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[MENZI SIMELANE, who has been named National Director of Public Prosecutions (NDPP) by President Jacob Zuma, is a really nice guy, friendly and quick to laugh. But that doesn&#8217;t cut it in this job, unfortunately. All prosecutions in the country are run through the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), which the NDPP heads.

Sadly for Simelane, he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NEWS that the South African Ballet Theatre (SABT) is in trouble is very sad but, perhaps, not surprising. Whole banks have vanished in this recession and a struggling ballet company at the bottom of Africa could hardly be expected to escape the storm.
The SABT is what was once PACT. Its dancers, jobless when the state [...]]]></description>
