Workers’ Party looking into video that suggests 'inappropriate exchange' between MP Leon Perera and member Nicole Seah
SINGAPORE: The opposition Workers’ Party on Monday said it was looking into a video suggesting an"inappropriate exchange" between senior party members Leon Perera and Nicole Seah.
The short 15-second clip, uploaded to social media, appears to show Mr Perera - a Member of Parliament for Aljunied - dining with 2020 general election candidate Ms Seah, while holding and stroking her hands. Both are married and sit on the WP's central executive committee, with Mr Perera heading the media team while Ms Seah is youth wing president."The party is currently looking into the matter and will comment when we have the facts," it said in a statement."The party also expects all its members to fully own and account for their behaviour."
