"2021 let it be the year for solutions. You politicians are the same. But I will take anyone seriously if they come with ideas for community development. Shouting and screaming from across the road won't take us anywhere."

@rubyjoms:

"I'm convinced now that these people don't really hate you or your tweets otherwise they would have long blocked you. They indeed enjoy your tweets hence always camping here. They're getting bored when they don't hear from you, EFF official page, CIC, DP as well as top 6!"
