NSP finds Tin Pei Ling’s match

NSP stands for Nicole Seah's Party!
The photographer said, put hand in pocket and stand obliquely... I stamped my feet many times before he explained what obliquely meant

Are they both a distraction from “real issues”? Who cares? Take them both out of the GRC and let them fight each other in the S-Factor!
