I think its high time Singaporeans take a stand. We want opposition, we want a constructive parliament, we don't want PAP to pass terrible policies easily. But we don't want all these motley crews, or crows. To have so many opposition parties in a small countries show how stupid Singaporean's egos are, especially all these old hopeless out of touch politicians.

So if there's no SDP, PSP, WP or even RDU in the constituent, I will vote PAP. All these moquitoes keep thinking "wa my vote share increased means i got chance" when its the fact the whole country increase for opp. It's not that ppl want them in, is just a dissent vote against PAP. If all these mosquitoes realise their vote share dropped while all the other credible opposition increase then it will make them wake up and f off
I will spoil my votes by writing xxxx PAP in the PAP box if mosquito party contest in my constituency

i would say nee soon is one of the weaker ones among the constituencies in the north

but time will tell what will happen once the minister retires. he is 1 of the 2 remaining MPs from the 1980s era (other than LHL). i expect the votes to swing much more wildly in nee soon once the current minister retires and for sure all the opposition will start to fight to get nee soon under their sleeves...

it is a real pity that WP and PSP are not maintaining their presence here in nee soon.

last time, WP often come over to nee soon to mingle with the residents and sell their hammer papers.

WP got their own set of selection criteria. If the candidate always post all kinds of negative criticisms against PAP on social media, these will not be accepted to the party. There is a good reason why GMS left WP after 2006. He was kind of recruited during the time when JBJ was playing a more active role in the party. But he is the kind who will surely clash with Low and Sylvia. Good that he left, otherwise for sure will bring down the name of WP. GMS kept criticising the WP leadership for many years after he left. He is a bitter old man with an axe to grind with almost anyone


One thing I find about many other opp parties is that, everyone wants to be in limelight and leading the party....
From the PSP FB page, there are a number of people walking the ground.
Lawrence Pek (the star catch who was the sec gen of mfg association), Wendy Low (ex tp candidate), Sani Ismail (cck need malay), Nalla (ex Yishun candidate), Ella Stan Lee(that smiley lady in that slapping incident) so these people were already ahead of her if she did not walk the ground for the past few years.



I think she expected to be fielded in one of the KYM SMCs, only to be told she won't be fielded and she decides to join SDP to gets fielded? Actually PAR still stake claim to MM and KB so PSP should just go and claim YCK, as if PAR would be able to dent PSP much.


Hmm I always feel even if the candidate cannot be fielded in GE, can always help with backend operations? Everyone needs to work as a team to win a GRC/SMC....

I like wad wp is doing, most of their members can put their ego aside to work towards better of their party :)
