The mood was electric. Families, friends and visitors poured in from every direction, turning the space around City Hall into one big summer street party. Kids owned the car-free streets of Adderley and Darling, darting between stalls and dancing to the music, while parents lounged on picnic blankets, soaking up the warm evening atmosphere. Law enforcement officers were visible throughout the event, keeping things running smoothly and ensuring the vibe stayed safe and family-friendly.

Elite continuity undermines justice

IT SEEMS a strange day to wake up to news that cast former presidents Thabo Mbeki and Jacob Zuma as allies - cartoons must surely follow soon that strangely, different to public opinion, will show them on the same side of history, different to earlier satire that painted their rivalry as one that reshaped the country.
