Media
Every week we reach hundreds of thousands of people through placing arguments in the media in support of the principles we stand for. No other advocacy group in the country does as much as we do to promote support for policies that defend your right, and that of your community, to make decisions about your own life free from counter-productive government interference.
11 November 2018 - A decision so vital to South Africa and all its people requires particularly careful consideration and a fully informed assessment of whether the improbable "pros" of expropriation without compensation outweigh its manifest "cons".
9 November 2018 - One of the preeminent threats to reason today is the political conspiracy theory, now an omnipresent and defining part of South African debate – and yet one which has, to date, eluded any meaningful analysis.

8 November 2018 - At the time of his comment to Bloomberg the IRR released a statement accusing the President of lying. Now we do so again.
7 November 2018 - For a country accustomed to accusation, grievance and self-justification, Ramaphosa’s words were a surprise.
7 November 2018 - UCT vice-chancellor Mamokgethi Phakeng’s celebration of an honours thesis which ended with the phrase “ONE SETTLER‚ ONE BULLET!!” is symptomatic of the degree to which the university is devolving into a poisonous epicentre for hate and intolerance.
7 November 2018 - Ms Soekoe imputes racism to parents’ responses to a school’s demographic. This view is antiquated and perhaps more reflective of her own soft racism.
7 November 2018 - The diktat of government officials is now more important in mining than any other economic or business considerations – a clear sign that something is wrong in this key sector.
7 November 2018 - Corruption may be a by-product of policies such as cadre deployment, but little will change in how parastatals are run until the primary reasons for their failure are admitted to and addressed.
