Waa this NSP.....Lost of words

 

[GOD IS MY DOG]

either NSP has fallen under PAP control or they're damn dumb..............make themselves look bad elsewhere too.........

either NSP has fallen under PAP control or they're damn dumb..............make themselves look bad elsewhere too.........

The alternative is that many residents have given feedback that they don't want WP. WP has been sunk by their incompetence in running the town council.

 

[Unrepented]

Some fat four eyed lady from NassP once said "...our ancestors were also immigrant..."...I think she don't get it..

Rule of thumb....wherever WP or SDP contest, vote WP, and SDP. Fuck care three corner fights or not.

either NSP has fallen under PAP control or they're damn dumb..............make themselves look bad elsewhere too.........

 

[winnipegjets]

PAP top brass panicked ...call NSP chief ...we will pay you personally $2 million and your party contest there. Deal sealed.

 

[Narong Wongwan]

NSP just fucked themselves......but maybe money in pocket is consolation

SINGAPORE: The National Solidarity Party (NSP) on Wednesday (Aug 19) announced that it will contest the single-member constituency (SMC) seat in MacPherson, more than a week after it said it will pull out to avoid multi-cornered fights.



This means MacPherson SMC could see a three-cornered fight. The Workers’ Party (WP) has also expressed interest in the constituency, while the People’s Action Party earlier announced it will field incumbent MP Tin Pei Ling in MacPherson.
“In recent weeks, NSP leaders have been receiving feedback and pledges of support from many residents in Marine Parade and MacPherson,” said the party in a statement on Wednesday.

The NSP contested against the PAP for the Marine Parade GRC during the 2011 General Election and garnered 43 percent of the vote. The MacPherson SMC has been carved out from the Marine Parade GRC in the 2015 electoral boundaries report released last month.

Despite announcing that it will pull out of contesting Marine Parade GRC and MacPherson SMC on Aug 10, the party said that its Central Executive Council (CEC) had “deliberated at length and decided to strike a balance between avoiding unnecessary conflict and keeping faith with our supporters”.

The NSP said it would not contest Marine Parade GRC, “on the merit that Joo Chiat has previously been contested by WP”. Joo Chiat was a battleground between the PAP and the WP during the 2011 General Election before the ward was absorbed into the Marine Parade GRC in the latest electoral boundaries report.

“As for MacPherson, the CEC strongly supports the decision to proceed with contesting in the SMC, where considerable outreach has been done prior to the 2011 General Election,” said the NSP.

The WP was not present at the second session of horse-trading talks on August 6; the discussions were aimed to prevent multi-cornered contests which traditionally favored the PAP. The NSP said it tried to contact WP after the meeting but there has been no response.

The NSP earlier said it will also contest Tampines GRC, Sembawang GRC and Pioneer SMC.

What purpose does it serve if the FAP ends up as the winner? What are the Oppos trying to prove? Disappointing...

What SOLIDARITY are they talking about? Think they should take out the "SOLIDARITY" from their party name and just call themselves NATIONAL PARTY. In this way, they can compete in all seats because it then is a truly "NATIONAL PARTY".

NSP acting sec-gen Hazel Poa resigns, says she strongly disagrees with decision to contest MacPherson.

SINGAPORE - The National Solidarity Party's (NSP) acting secretary-general Hazel Poa has resigned from the party and will not contest the next general election, she said in a statement on Wednesday.

The 44-year-old said she was stepping down because she "strongly disagreed" with the party's decision to reverse its decision to withdraw from MacPherson SMC.

She wrote in a statement: "On 17 Aug 2015, the CEC of NSP decided to support Steve Chia's request to contest in MacPherson SMC in a 3 cornered fight against WP and PAP. It was a decision I strongly disagreed with, and hence not one I can implement. As the direction that the party has decided to pursue deviates greatly from my own, I see no choice other than to resign from the NSP."

The statement came minutes after the party announced it was going to contest MacPherson SMC, setting up a possible three-cornered fight at the single-seat ward.

NSP central executive committee (CEC) member Steve Chia is said to have strongly pushed for the party to contest MacPherson SMC. This was put to a vote, with a majority of the CEC opting to support Mr Chia's request.

She said: "Whilst I disagree with the decision that has been taken, I respect the right of the CEC as the decision-making body of the Party to make that call. I wish NSP all the best in the coming GE."

Ms Poa added that unlike in other political parties, the leader of NSP is the president and not the secretary-general, who "plays the role of media spokesperson for the party".

"Therefore, my departure will not result in a situation of the party being leaderless," she said.

She added that her resignation means she will not be contesting the next election.

" I would like to thank all who have encouraged me on my journey and given me helpful pointers, including members of NSP and other political parties, the public and the media. I apologise to all whom I have disappointed. My own disappointment is no less. For me, the coming months will be a time for reflection," she said.

This is the second time Ms Poa has resigned from the NSP.

Ms Poa, a former government scholarship holder and one of the party's star candidates in the 2011 General Election, had been elected as the party's secretary-general in June 2011 and again in April 2013, but stepped down suddenly in September 2013 citing health reasons.

She was appointed as acting secretary-general in June after Mr Tan Lam Siong resigned as party chief.

NSP senses the opportunity when WP decided not to field any of their A team outside of Aljunied GRC. Even SL decided to stay put after her famous declaration " Fengshan looks delicious " with her twitter tag " reasontoown# "
It seems WP is sensing that the ground in Aljunied GRC is not as sweet as before. Residents in Aljunied are concerned about the town council 's finances. Will WP get its house in order ? Thaman has stoked the fire by even saying that the town council accounting system is unsound like a house with major structural defects.
No wonder , the A team is staying put to defend Aljunied GRC with all they got.

NSP has all along been opportunistic. They sense that with the WP's A team out of the way for other constituencies, they may stand a good chance of a getting majority vote for their party, if not an outright win if they field in the right candidate.

Macpherson SMC is ripe for the picking as TPL has a scary start in 2011 and WP candidate Ms He is a relatively new face. She has a fresh look, but with WP still struggling with town council's finance issues, the party may not win the trust of Macpherson residents yet.

Masterstroke by pap. Instructing nsp to do multi corner fights in potong pasir and macpherson smc.

It all becomes clear now. Nsp ex and current party secretary eg. Goh ms and the two guys taking part in mcf all dead against wp. So all along nsp works for pap.

 

[CABcommander]

Very smart of pap to make nsp go into macpherson. Now voters who originally intend to vote for nsp say in tampines grc will either spoil their vote or vote for pap because they tulan with nsp. This will make the pap winning % increase.

It will also create an overall negative image of the opposition. Really really a pap master stroke.

I once raised the question of whether we should vote a doggie opp like nsp or spoil the note if it is a straight fight. Yanzi gave a good reason why we should still vote for the opp even if it is not genuine. Simply because it will reduce the overall % of votes for pap. Spoiling the vote would actually increase the overall % of votes for pap and that is what they want which is why they are openly showing that some of the opp are actually doggie and sending these doggies to otherwise uncontested constituencies.

How about the 3 ex-PAP MP run Town Council with a $2.00 registered Company

can handle million dollars>>. this is not scam?? or Conflict of Interest ~ kaki lan..PAP

give to Ex-PAP..under table this is RIGHT??? This is PAP competence??

Later sold the company for a Handsome Profit $2.00 become milloin???

 

[kopiOuncle]

this is a very good move by the great blains in nsp

ground poll indicates that workers party is dead

pap is the only party that will win

nsp feel that workers party is incapable

so nsp feel obliged to come in to kick out the workers party

and give pap the support which is the genuine feeling on the ground

people want pap
people do not want workers party
nsp is right to come in to kick out the workers party

pap will win hands down

thanks to the fartup oppo camp

Dont rule out last min NSP enter contest in EC and MP. Liverpool had S&S&S -:Suarez n Sterling n Sturridge. England had S&S too - Sheringham n Shearer.

NSP's S&S - Sebastian and Steve.
