GE2011 lose 1st grc.

GE2015 make use of lky death but fail to win back grc.

GE2020 make use of fear of covid but lose 2nd grc.

GE2025 try to make use of tariffs to create fear but it will fail too. Get ready to lose your 2/3 majority in parliament.
Can say all these in theory sure but the gerrymandering will work wonders as intended.

The redrawing of boundary basically will ensure they retain every risky constituencies, what west coast and east coast etc all no chance liao.

It is the number one most important and powerful tool to ensure they win and retain as many seats as possible.

Socialist Front was set up by Chia Ti Lik who was once a WP member and left. Quite a strange fellow. He contested once under WP banner and left. Mentioned that he set up Socialist Front but did nothing and vanished from the scene
Then there is another joker Tan Jee Say who create Singfirst Party in 2014 only to dissolve the party in 2020 because of his dismal results in GE2015, that's why I support those established party like WP instead of these mosquito parties

No permission to hold meeting: Chee Soon Juan's allegation of double standards not true, says Sembawang Town Council
https://www.asiaone.com/singapore/n...ans-allegation-double-standards-not-true-says

Singapore Democratic Party chief Chee Soon Juan posted a video claiming that his application to hold a townhall meeting in Sembawang was rejected.

Sembawang Town Council has addressed allegations made by Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) chief Chee Soon Juan that it denied permission for the party to hold a town hall meeting.



In a TikTok video posted on Dr Chee's account on Monday (April 7), he said he had written to the town council for a space to discuss mental health with residents but was rejected.

He also expressed concern that the town council was unfairly targeting the opposition, displaying images of People's Action Party (PAP) members distributing food to residents, implying it was a case of "double standards".

In a Facebook statement on Tuesday (April 8), the town council clarified that Dr Chee's claims of double standards were "untrue", stating that common spaces are intended for "recreation, community activities, and providing assistance to residents in need", and that it "does not permit political activities to be conducted".

The town council noted that the photos of PAP distributing food were part of an effort to assist residents in need, not a political activity.

The statement also highlighted that SDP had distributed food in public spaces without facing any restrictions.

Dr Chee confirmed in March that he will be contesting in the newly formed Sembawang West SMC.

AsiaOne has reached out to the town council and SDP for comments.

2015 was not bad for PAP wor. WP only very narrowly retain Aljunied and PAP almost got 70% total votes.

This time I feel will be a bit status quo as last GE :o

Think perhaps this time need to do it more drastically cause there is the escalating cost of living issue above most, if not all people head. That might swing some people decision. So, need to make sure. :s22:

Yeah. 2 runs of GST hike at a time when recession was looming and hard headed insistence that it will help the poor. This spurred the inflation for every part of the supply chain and at a time when people are facing retrenchments.

No thanks to you know who. What kind of leaders these are.
