JOHANNESBURG – South Africa’s unemployment rate increased to 32.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter, according to data from Statistics SA.

While the results from the Quarterly Labour Force Survey for the fourth quarter of 2020 showed that the number of employed people increased to 15 million, it also showed that the number of unemployed people increased to 7.2 million.

The country has recorded the highest unemployment rate since 2008.

The rate has increased by 1.7 percentage points during the fourth quarter of last year.

This means there was a movement in the labour market which was proportionately more to the unemployed than for the employed where increases were also recorded.

According to the expanded definition of unemployment, the rate decreased by 0.5 of a percentage point to 42.6% in the fourth quarter.

Video: No War has EVER been fought over Right Vs Wrong
Everybody I come across thinks that wars are fought for moral reasons. They think wars are fought over the issue of Right versus Wrong or Good versus Bad. At first this shocked me and I realised that indeed everyone has been conditioned to think like this.

Video: The real evidence for Farm Murders in South Africa
This is the nastiest, hardest hitting video ever made about S.African Farm murders and the murder of Whites. This video is JAM PACKED with information the SA Government and President do NOT want you to see. They have lied to the Mass Media and even to American and European Presidents.

I am NOT attacking the FEW British who have woken up (past & present) to the plight of the Race. The British I am referring to are the Liberalised British.
