  5. Keir Starmer wants a “clean break” from Labour’s past on immigration.
    Translation: abandon values of solidarity, equality & internationalism.
    We don’t need a clean break — we need a clean conscience.

  9. "Tactics is knowing what to do when there is something to do. Strategy is knowing what to do when there is nothing to do. The blunders are all there on the board, waiting to be made. The winner of the game is the player who makes the next-to-last mistake" - Savielly Tartakower

    ok, so the funds are there... there is a way. I'll present it as learned in school, a business plan.

  10. 🇸🇬 The #GE2025 outcome was in after 9 days of vigorous debate. Regardless of political leanings, let's remember: our strength lies in unity. It's time to focus on shared goals and build a stronger #Singapore together.

  11. Early results from Singapore elections show a strong mandate for the ruling party, while the leading opposition party WP will likely hold on to the seats it’s got.

    There is a real climate of fear now (tariffs will impact us greatly, and we feel very stuck between the U.S. and China on many aspects). Not surprised that people are going for the ‘safety’ of the only thing most of us have ever known. Despite the rhetoric of the Shut It All Down, no more immigration people, nobody really wants.. that.

    Other than the WP and PSP, there aren’t any parties I could in good conscience vote for. I hope that WP will continue to expand and grow.

  26. One of the reasons I care deeply about exercising my vote in the upcoming Singapore elections:

    While I don’t consider myself a deeply patriotic person, I am deeply connected to Singapore. I have deep roots there. I know every nook and cranny of the land. I’ve lived and loved across the island. I love and hate it in equal parts.

    With distance, I note that while I feel increasingly detached from it on the day to day level: in that I have not, in a decade or more, been a person from there who struggles with train breakdowns or increase in prices, but I care for it on a big picture level.

    My leading political theory for Singapore in the ‘20s and beyond: I believe the Chinese state has increasing designs on Singapore as a vassal state. For more than a decade they’ve been throwing out the ideas of ‘y’all Chinese anyway’ (not true); seeded all kinds of spies, etc.

    I’m interested, on a geopolitical level, in what it means to be a Singapore citizen. Exercising my right to vote in my own sovereign nation, feels important to me in that context. I think this is the single biggest existential crisis for the country in this decade and next.

  30. I liked this video of the Leader of the Opposition, Pritam Singh.

    The fact that we even have this official position at all makes me happy. When I was a teenager there, I vividly remember that Election Day was always just a holiday: the ruling party won almost every seat without contest.

    There’s another video of his colleague Sylvia Lim, she talks about how she was spurred into action to join the difficult work of opposition party politics because of her shock at how we rarely had contested elections, 23 years ago.

    I think Pritam has articulated a clear and attainable goal: of achieving 1/3 of the seats in Parliament (for them, or for any opposition combined). That’s a significant number because in our parliamentary democracy, you need 2/3 of the vote to change the Constitution.

  42. The Singaporean ruling party leaked some ‘unsavory’ evidence about someone competing with them. Turns out it’s chats where he’s mad at the largest Singapore bank and telco, which actually maybe makes him more relatable. (fuck Singtel now and forever)

    Meanwhile the ruling party is the one with a Cabinet minister in a bribery scandal.

  46. Not sure if this was mentioned - putting just 26 candidates by WP for #GE2025 - means even if they win all the seats they are contesting - it'll only be just a tad higher than a quarter of the parliament.

    Message to voters, especially those on the fence to know that even if they vote for WP - the PAP will still be the 'majority' - and that the governance of the country will not have 'significant' impact... From WP : go forth and vote WP! No #freakelections

  50. Singapore prime minister tells a crowd of people who mostly live in public housing that a wealth tax will negatively impact people who live in ‘landed’ housing (that only the rich can afford). Silence ensues. Great.
