Lies

Posted by FactFinder
The SABC spokesperson, today, in an interview with Morning Live, claimed that the "permormance bonusses" paid to Management in December was owed to them in terms of the "profits" that were made in the previous financial year, and that SABC management can not prejudice "people" by not paying them what is owed to them.

There are two viscious lies contained in this:

1. The Audit Report of the year in question was rejected as "qualified" (not reflecting the full truth). No profits shown in there can be claimed as true.

2. The SABC management can (and does!) prejudice people, as long as it is not themselves.

Comments are welcome.

    It was crisis day in the parliament
    The house was hushed and still.
    A member rose with a question
    “Are we doomed to go downhill?”
    “I am confident of an upturn”,
    The Speaker made reply.
    “If workers pay is held at bay,
    We'll all be home and dry.”
    “How true, how true”, cried the workers.
    “Let's end this wicked strike.
    We don't want a rise in wages,
    They can stick it where they like.”
    “Thank God, Thank God”, sobbed the bosses.
    “There's faith on the factory floor.
    And now we've got this extra lot
    We'll give it to the poor.”
    They filled their pockets with money
    And ran with eager feet
    Pressing their surplus profits
    On the people in the street.
    They moved among the dole queues
    And boarded every bus
    With streaming eyes and heartfelt cries
    “You need it more than us”.
    Soon all the people prospered
    And the devil became a saint
    Now the sober unions
    Had exercised restraint.
    The cities were filled with singing
    And the sound of laughter spread
    As hand took hand in the golden land
    and pigs flew overhead.

    According to 'THE TEN PRINCIPLES OF THE UN GLOBAL COMPACT' on Corporate Citizenship:
    Principle 6 ..the elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.

    Principle 10 is ANTI-CORRUPTION
    Business should work against all forms of corruption.....

    I think certain the SABC management interprets these principles in reverse......

    Let us workers work towards achieving a healthy workace!!

    Viva the workers, VIVA!!!
