'The decision-making that led to a ban on warm chicken meals and flip-flops wants to take decisions about the energy crisis without proper oversight,' says trade union Solidarity.

Solidarity reacted with shock at the announcement by Ramaphosa to deal with the energy crisis.

“The harsh reality is that the instruments to solve the crisis are already at the president’s disposal — he chooses not to use them. Therefore, a state of disaster is irrational and unnecessary and leaves Solidarity with no option but to litigate,” Hermann said. “This is a lose-lose situation. We dare not allow a repeat of the government’s abuse of power that occurred during the Covid-19 state of disaster. The decision-making that led to a ban on warm chicken meals and flip-flops wants to take decisions about the energy crisis without proper oversight.”
