From the moment Shaun Johnson arrived at the newspaper, he was different. To qualify for a job at the Weekly Mail you needed to look as if you’d just rolled out of bed after a hard night and didn’t own a hairbrush or a pair of shoes.

this week were rows of faded front pages of the paper, more than 40 of them, dating back three decades. The pages shared one thing in common: Shaun Johnson had written the lead story on each.

As various women noticed immediately, he was also handsome. A dinner party was elaborately contrived, its secret agenda concealed from him. Many hopefuls attended, but the winner was a beautiful graphic designer named Stefania, who stole Shaun’s heart that night — and with whom he remained until his death last week.

You had to be careful where you stepped so as not to trip over a duke or duchess or a viscount or just a mere Sir. They came, they saw, and a good few opened their cheque books.

South Africa’s economy plunges into a recession - The Mail & GuardianThis is the second recession under President Cyril Ramaphosa’s leadership and comes as he battles with Eskom’s load-shedding and weak business confidence.

It is the people of the country who are not being productive not the government stop blaming government blame yourselves because you the one that wrote this is not doing anything productive for the economy. The ANC's system is corrupt yes but I works and it has given me and many young people like me an opportunity to rise and be productive. Stop blaming the president and start proposing solutions on how we can work and build the economy.
