#541 - Politicians Graded on LGBTQ Stance & NUS Students Get Wednesday Me-Time

Recently, Protect Singapore released a scorecard grading politicians based on their LGBTQ stance. Some were disappointed that this occurred right before Pink Dot, but we argue why it might be a good thing. Elsewhere, NUS announced that its students can take Wednesday afternoons off for out-of-class activities starting this August, ostensibly to aid their mental well-being. We question whether this move was really necessary.
