I don't think that has been a party anywhere in the world that has received this much of attention in 20 years straight, carried the highest profile within the opposition camp and consistently again for 20 straight years and pioneered the use of alternate and now powerful social media and has nothing to show for it.
The master of foreplay? Maybe the longest political foreplay. So how did it come to this. A proposal that was so ridiculous and ludicrous, that there was immediate and unusual twin reaction - stunned and breaking out in laughter.
To the "more discerning" was it a venom filled barb as the game has been lost with no hope when the press release to release the 3 letters to WP backfired. The barb was that WP was not worthy of being parliamentary representative.
There are however a silver lining in the cloud, not for Chee or his close associates. The party has been a magnet for some bright and promising individuals in recent years. I suspect the only magnet as other political parties are entirely unattractive in the first place or where their politics are, they are rather snobbish in terms of membership.
There is clear clear need for a vent or an outlet and a natural outcome is a new party. RP was that new party but one individual killed it swiftly not once but twice.
So watch SBF for the latest.................. In the meantime, let us take this opportunity to wave a long goodbye to Chee Soon Juan and his merry band of champagne socialites, culture-jammers, fan club members, self styled policy wonks who can't see the forest for the trees, self labelled activists and the usual blur-fucks. Time to part the bum cheeks once again, this time to take the head out and see the world for what it is.
