An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Inspired by recent events, six of us convened at Balestier, fresh from an assault on the lorongs of geylang…my head was still spinning from an aerial assault by a whirling helicopter.
The soup was excellent as usual and the debate was spirited.
We ended the night in unanimous agreement that the best strategy the opposition parties could have taken was to not field any candidates at for the BE and let the ruling party take it as a walkover. While some might see this as rolling over, it would send a pretty harsh and clear message.
Reason #1: It's a tainted event to begin with….competing for the chair of an (alleged) adulterer.
Reason #2: The best way to express disgust with the current management of that area.
Reason #3: A nice up yours to the 70% who need their eyes opened.
Reason #4: Winning it won't achieve sweet f'all in the larger scheme of things.
Reason #5: You may not win this way but you defeat the other party based on moral standing.
Feel free to add your views to this rather radical view on things.
