My take as a Concerned Senior Citizen who has eaten more salt than any of the MPs in Parliament:
This impudence, intolerance, bullying, belittling etc towards Opposition MPs must stop !
It reinforces an already ugly perception of elitism, arrogance and rudeness that has been the hallmark of Senior Ministers, in particular Shanmugam, CCS, KBW, Dr.BK, who behave as if they are disciplinary school masters waving a cane, pointing fingers and picking on students they dislike ( for little or no reason ) in a publicly televised “classroom.”
They forget that people like Sylvia Lim are Elected Representatives of their constituency and act as the voice of the voters they represent. Is it so difficult to behave and act in a gracious, considerate and gentlemanly manner ? Try displaying that same arrogance and bullying tactics in front of the constituents who voted for you , as well as those who didn’t , and see what happens come the next GE. ( As I see it, you all will be losing a lot of votes in the next GE , for reasons that are so apparent perhaps not to you but surely to the silent, disappointed voters, 70 percent of whom happened to vote for your party in the last GE.)
If you can smile, display grace, kindness, warmth and respect for your constituents, why can’t you do the same to your Opposites in Parliament? Or are we merely witnessing unashamed hypocracy or " political wayang" to retain and win more votes?
