South Africa sets date for white farmer land grabs March 2019
First it was on, then it was off. Now it is back on. White Farmer's land censures to begin in March. We had a big thread on this the first time around. Basically I worry about a famine in South Africa in the coming years as the white farmers are pushed out as what happened in elsewhere this was tried.
The countrys National Assembly approved a proposal to change the constitution to make the so-called reforms legal in a vote of 183 to 77.
This paves the way for land to be taken from farmers without giving any kind of compensation.
And now lawmakers have agreed to set up a committee that will write and introduce a new bill for land expropriations.
A deadline of the end of March next year for the committee to present its first report to parliament has also been agreed.
