Dear Scroo, A Geoffry Howe style letter and resignation if any. His resignation puts in the light squarely fundamental issues of management, direction and leadership within the party. a. A cadreship within the WP is worthless, A Cadreship with the PAP priceless. b...

Dear Scroo, GMS has a tendency of seeing the shadow of a swallow and calling out a a Summer/ Spring. The direct translation of the ZB article is a lot more subtle and less direct then GMS makes it out to be and with his tendency of shadow calling all thoughts of subtlety has gone out...

Dear Scroo, One has in Southern Thailand the ingredients for a Mindaono or Moro style islamic insurgency. Regligious divide, weak or ineffective central government, terrain conducive for insurgency, easy access to cheap and surplus arms, etc etc. But yet what we have at most is...

Dear Ramseth Judge is going I pretend not to do anything for a month and if BE is called no more headache. Locke QUOTE=Ramseth;1010547]Judgment reserved means the judge saying, headache, all go home first and let the judge think about it.

Dear Rams After having seen Moulmein, Kallang become in demographics like Holland Bukit Panjang. I would say that the temptation by the PAP was for the WP to over reach and to spread its best candidates to thinly on the ground. They designed Moulmein Kallang and all the SMCs as...

Dear Scroobal, Politics, Personalities and outright Pricks. Parts of the TOC are now shouting the, Free Choice and Democracy argument which was what I said GMS would argue on behalf of NS before NS dropped out. I have despaired at the SDP before GE 2011, praised them for...

Dear Rams Is quite simple and I say this as a WP member and supporter. Hougang is definitely not WP's little fiefdom and democracy is about choice and free choice, but WHEN the PAP treats Singapore likes its liffle fiefdom, with GRCs, Gerrymandering, Use of the PA during elections, etc...

Dear Scroobal, The sad fact for the WP is that for it to make any headway an alliance of sorts has to be made between the Chinese Educated and the Liberal English Educated wings. Voters are both aspirational, " voting for people who they aspire to be", inspirational " voting for people...

Dear Perspective, The problem with all this jobbing with tissue paper which in effect this is what it is. There are no clear rules, with regards to seniority and rights in one election versus another. Names of the constituencies change, boundaries change and the Jalan Besar of NSP days...

Dear Nice, There are some nice points within, but honestly some of it seems over the top and an excuse for a gold plated health care system expensive beyond belief with no consideration for costs and benefits. For example conversion of all B class C class wards to A class two bed...

Dear Perspective, I do agree when u have say 18 wp mps, 3 SDP Mps and perhaps one NSP mp. and the PAP has lost its 2/3rds. But to grow to that stage some form of deal making is necessary. To argue that 3Cfs will prove the dominance of a second party when the numbers are so low is...

Dear Perspective, Any politician who choses in a 3CF in Hougang will do a GMS. Talk about democratic principles, offering choices etc etc , maybe something about the current weakness in the WP and offering greater choice against the PAP. Its to be expected. The question is what does...

Dear Perspective, A3F has absolutely nothing to do with moral values or principles, its about political horse trading against a common enemy i.e the PAP. The person you hate the most is in my view banging on and lobbying for a 3CF hence his diatribes about the weaknesses in the WP and...

Dear Scroobal, I really really believe that one or two would have been fine, but that many ? A case of political wannabe's trying to curry favor with the PM ? Thanks EK

Dear Sad Most of us did not buy the PAPs characterizations, we just disagreed strongly about the direction for Political Opposition in Singapore. Supporters including me have grown up as the parties have changed, The SDP has realized the need for ground work but it has tried to continue...

My education in to political "integrity" and political assasination under the guise of upholding morality and integrity started with Newt Gingrich and Bill Clinton. The PAP with its relentless character assassinations thought me another. Pope GMS and his fire and brimstone speeches on...

Scroobal, Fr the bottom of my heart. If the WP screws it up, I curse rant fuck them upside down In public and in private, beg for change argue for change even if I am not listened to , pray they do not fuck it up and if they do wish that they learn faster. I would wish the same for The...

Dear Scroobal It is with the utmost disappointment which I read the latest comments of GMS. You would have thought that fr the manner in which his views were structured he was the last virgin left in a brothel of politicians. GMS was ard way way back when I was asked by LTK why I...

dear JXL I believe I did not make any excuses for YSL in any form and in fact was brutally critical. Attribution takes many forms and it's strictest as a rule for formal academic research and papers. Speeches are copied wholsale and adapted by context, verse and chapter by speech...

Dear GMS, You best sum up in my view the notion, " with friends like these who needs enemies. ". Firstly both CSM and PS cannot be held to academic standards for research papers and citations. CSM had shared Donald Lows thoughts on his Facebook, by nature Facebook is informal chatty...
