I am now retired, and contemplating politics. Not the ones in the corporate offices. They are already packed with full-time politicians, I wouldn’t stand a chance. I love academia too, but wouldn’t be able to survive there either. I’ve heard the politics there is especially vicious because the stakes are so small.I can join a political party. But I’ve never joined one before, and I hate filling up forms and paying dues and attending meetings and demonstrations .
I would have to start my own political party then. First order of business is choosing a party symbol. All the nice ones are taken, and only a few not-so-attractive ones are left. I don’t want a tongue depressor as my party’s symbol, so I’d have to settle on the speeding Myvi symbol. The Registrar of Societies wasn’t happy to see that go: the next one, a squatting toilet bowl, may always remain untaken.
Wanting to bring about change to our political landscape – you know, honesty and integrity and all that rubbish – I want to start right by being brutally frank and honest. Next is money. I will need lots of money to get the party machinery going. Since I have to pay the dues for all my party members , I’d need to be rolling in dough. I can do a combination of crowdfunding, charitable foundation, and donation from a rich Middle Eastern country.
