Facebook post this morning, Lammadonna's back online. She's just been re-appointed, also announced by name on Chin. TVB TV, including the reasons why Gavin Cheng and Rahel Gohel have been disqualified after the registration deadline.

Lammadonna's flyer from today, happily, triumphantly paid for by the DAB who'll be the only locally active political party on Lamma for at least 4 more years.

Sorry to hear this.

So only 1 of the 3 formerly registered candidates remains for the Lamma District Council elections.
Rajen Gohel has been disqualified as well, due to his registered postal address being outdated and it being too late to amend it.

Yu Lai-fan will keep her position w/o opposition.

Yes, would be good to specify what you mean by this:

'only Lamma Island Islanders instead of having just any local residents'

I think that the only way that YLF is going to get out of office is if someone who is a local and who speaks Cantonese and targets her traditional base. But this is only going to happen if that person aligns him / herself with YLF type politics. So I don't have a lot of faith in the platform above.

Gavin, what is the difference between your policies and her's? Would like to hear a much more specific explanation of this than is described above. I would not personally vote for you unless I knew this and also how you define 'Lamma Island Islanders'. After living here 16 years, renting three flats and buying property, am I considered a "Lamma Island Islander'? Or am I one of those disagreeable foreigners you speak of?
