Goodbye trash and old political attitudes! On social media, they have welcomed a newfound sense of political will to implement important laws that for so long have not been enforced. These events constitute longed-for positive changes and, therefore, a challenge for our newly elected leaders, and compel us to throw away old political attitudes, and in their place, bring new political will. Instead of a consistent application of rules, exceptions and underimplementation were rife under this old political milieu. In all, it means that strong expressions of political will are no longer matters to hide or be ashamed of.
