COMMENT | DAP has earned its 'lapdog' label

“He (Muda president Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman) should be more self-reflective and look in the mirror once in a while.”

- Ipoh Timor MP Howard Lee

COMMENT | If you do not get the irony in Lee’s rejoinder to Syed Saddiq, you eventually will.

A couple of points need to be made. The DAP should stop sounding like the Cosa Nostra whenever they respond to criticism no matter how vitriolic the criticisms are.

Lee saying DAP is a loyal friend and talking about how DAP provides legal support to Syed Saddiq plays like a scene from a mob flick.

I assumed that said support was based on the fact that DAP knew Syed was innocent of those charges or that the charges were possibly politically motivated much like the charges against DAP national chairperson Lim Guan Eng.

Does DAP’s help come with attachments? Does DAP supporting someone mean that no criticism can be levelled against them, especially when it comes to issues of national interest...
