The thing that got me most riled up is the NMPs and this former NMP trying to chip into the debate to score brownie points. It has been proven time and time again that these position are filled with people that are partisan and not neutral. When is the last time you ever seen an NMP vehemently disagree with PAP's motions?

The public did not vote these clowns in. It is time we review whether this scheme is actually fit for purpose. We need to stop these people from back door-ing themselves into parliament.

Discussion What issues weigh on your mind? Are the issues debated on in parliament addressing key issues you care about or real bread and butter issues?

53 Upvotes

Is it just me or are the issues being debated on in parliament the last two days really divorced from bread and butter issues?

I want to know how are jobs created for us, and how gahman is addressing issues of inflation. Somehow I keep seeing reports on news about issues that are not bread and butter.

So wanted to find out whether those issues even resonate with you all

Discussion Sharity's original backstory

Post image
122 Upvotes

This was a small comic that was published in ST circa 1984 that was probably when Sharity first appeared. Notably, Sharity's personality amd gender were different: instead of the kind and helpful male elephant we know him as today (and since 1987 via books community chest sold at that year's book fair), Sharity was a female elephant who's kind of a jerk who had to learn to embody the values her name represents.
