[ Debate in Parliament - exposing the dishonesty ]
I had an exchange with Ms Sylvia Lim. She made serious, baseless insinuations – that in essence the government was lying to the people.
I have seen her do this several times. Insinuate, never directly accuse, but run when confronted. Insinuate without basis.
Decided to point out the facts - which showed the truth, and asked her to withdraw the allegations.
When faced with the facts she had to admit that she was only putting out her “suspicions”. She also admitted that she had not checked her facts. First World Parliament?!
When confronted robustly- the trolls will come in with a spin - oh you see, here is the bullying again. For these spinners, an opposition MP can make serious allegations - but should not be confronted with facts.
Why? Because they cannot answer or explain what they said.
In rallies - very loud. But in Parliament- can’t answer.
Here is the video of the relevant parts of the exchange.
