George Yeo's Press Statement here.
"Why did we lose Aljunied?
Mr Low Thia Kiang himself said that they won Aljunied not because the Aljunied team did not do a good job, but because the voters wanted WP to be their voice in Parliament.
Mr Low’s analysis is fair and I agree with him. This desire for a strong WP voice in Parliament was a political tide which came in through Aljunied which we were unable to withstand despite our very best efforts. Right from the start, the Workers Party made Aljunied a national battleground."
Clearly something wrong with our political system when a good man like BG Yeo loses whilst airhead bimbo Tin Pei Ling gets into Parliament.
Sir - my friends and I salute you.
Run for President and safeguard our reserves?

You are not the only one who feels so. There's an online petition going around asking for re-election of Marine Parade to replace TPL with GY.
Haha .. that would be an abuse of the democratic process ..
Lim Hwee Hua also quit ... makes you wonder about the level of commitment of these people to public service, or maybe they are just in it for the money perhaps ? Look at the tax-free pensions they will be getting .. Lim Hwee Hua about S$101000 per month (salary S$2.2m) and George Yeo S$155000 per month (salary S$2.8m) respectively ....
