Through expansion, the #BRICS may be hoping to tilt the world financially away from the #dollar. But that would require a cohesiveness that is bound to dwindle in light of the competing interests and loyalties of the new members, argues @PolSciBhaso. ips-journal.eu/topics/foreign…

We once had an idea of a Reconstruction Bond to finance infrastructure backlogs?
‘We must all get down to work to build a better life for all’ - the son of Nosekeni and Gadla
Some news: Earlier this week I successfully defended my dissertation, earning my PhD. In July, I will join the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University as an Assistant Professor.
Anyway, thank God the IEC appealed because what on earth does this judgment mean? This judgment also just reads like an ex post facto rationalisation for the order, especially because Modiba J says she only considered the Certification Judgment *after* the order had been issued.
Why? Because THE PRESIDENT IS NOT A COURT. How can it be that the ultimacy of a sentence imposed is to be determined against the power to remit when the President does NOT have the power to impose a sentence in the first place? I mean… this is just… sigh
But she goes further: A sentence is ultimate if it is imposed by a court, an appeal court, or “when a pardon or remission is granted”. But this is wrong. Appeals only lie to courts higher than the sentencing court. The appeal court’s decision on sentence is final.
Yet, stunningly this is not the most shocking statement of law. Enter Yacoob AJ who says the real issue is that of the “ultimate sentence”. She says the disqualification is “drastic”. So what? The Constitution imposes drastic consequences for criminal acts, why is that wrong?
The effect of Modiba J’s reasoning here is that is that the President can simply change sentences imposed by courts through remission because the power to remit penalties comes from the Constitution. Yet the same Constitution tells us that court orders are binding and final. How?
Thats why the law allows for appeals *to a higher court*. The President has no power to impose or alter a sentence or to set it aside. So it can’t be true that the power of remission can have the same effect as the power of a court to sentence because they are different powers.
Then we have Modiba J who says that the President through remission can alter a sentence imposed by a court because s 84(2)(j) allows him to reprieve offenders. But this begs the question. Only a court can impose a sentence upon conviction and on appeal, alter that sentence.
