The PAP has said that we should not become a western-style democracy because it creates gridlock if there are too many checks and balances. But what if the PAP loses its way, and we end up with a Trumpian style leader?

Many Singaporeans question the timing of this new Law, indicating that if this was to be passed into Law, it should not be parachuted in immediately for the next election, but instead should be carried out for the next one. Many also questioned if the hurried nature of the Reserved Presidency Election was to stop Tan Cheng Bock from contesting, as he had been widely tipped to run for the President, and most said that he could have won.

The Istana is presently looking for a chef to join its staff, and has placed an advert on the government job portal, [email protected] Istana, is of course, the official residence of the President of Singapore, Halimah Yacob. Unfortunately, the advertisement keeps referring to the President as a male.

The Singapore Democratic Party regrets the Court of Appeal's decision, which dismissed Dr Wong Souk Yee's appeal and thereby showed that there is no need for a by-election when former PAP MP Halimah Yacob vacated her seat for the Presidency. The party urged Singaporeans to support it so that it can come up with better solutions and safeguard everyone's interests.

SDP questioned if Zaqy Mohamad is the rightful representative in Marsiling-Yew Tee as residents were never consulted on the decision. It drew parallels with Halimah Yacob's Presidency and has since initiated action in court for the lack of a by-election.

Singapore's biggest trolls have exposed a fake news story claiming that President Halimah Yacob had purchased a bungalow along the exclusive and expensive Fifth Avenue prior to becoming Singapore's first female presideng.

Lawyer Jeannette Chong-Aruldoss sarcastically talked about the PAP's constant tinkering with our political system, especially the EP, and wondered if it's also considered gerrymandering.

Opposition politician Goh Meng Seng doesn't understand why Madam President did not foresee that it will be impossible for security personnel to fully keep her flat safe. He expected her to move out within a month but laughed that she only lasted 3 weeks.

Thank you for everyone's concern with regard to my residential arrangements. MHA has just issued a statement about the security challenges they face if I continue to stay in my current home. Therefore, as much as I would like to continue living in my current home in Yishun, I have accepted MHA's recommendation and will make arrangements to move to a new place soon.

Guy who appeared on a picture on DPM Tharman's FB clarified that he was not the one who asked about gutter politics. However, he recalled asking about the EP and was not surprised when his question went unanswered.
