By now, you would probably have come across posters of the various political parties and their candidates around your neighbourhood.  But for Red Dot United (RDU), some of their posters have gone missing, while others were found hung upside down, placed in the wrong constituency or were damaged, said the party. In a Facebook post on Monday (April 28), the party shared that some members of the public have sent them pictures of the posters placed wrongly, as well as photographs of people taking down their posters.  «We do not believe they are our volunteers, which means their actions are unauthorised and constitute a crime under Clause 16 of the Parliamentary Elections (Posters and Banners) Regulations,» wrote RDU.  The clause states that any person who destroys, obliterates, defaces, alters or removes any poster or banner displayed shall be guilty of an offence.

Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong said on April 29 that it is a «ridiculous argument» to suggest that the People's Action Party (PAP) can lose ministers without weakening the government. This was in response to Workers' Party (WP) chief Pritam Singh's earlier statement on Monday (April 28) that even if all 26 WP candidates are voted into Parliament this year, the Government have «enough space, enough leeway, enough focus to deal with the issues of today and tomorrow». Speaking to reporters at 630 Bedok Reservoir Road Market and Food Centre in Aljunied GRC today, the 73-year-old Lee countered: «It's a ridiculous argument. »Every team has got a range of members some more critical, some playing complementary roles. If it doesn't matter who is in the team, then there should be no difficulty making a good government with anybody. You don't need to assemble a strong group of people." SM Lee added that the 48-year-old was making his claims with the intention of gaining support for the WP team contesting against Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong for Punggol GRC in the May 3 general election.
