N ot much time remains to break this impasse, which means to end the deadlock. I have an idea on how to break the stalemate. Hong Kong should elect two chief executives. The democracy camp can elect Longhair Leung Kwok-hung. The pro-establishment camp can elect DAB member Lawrence Ma Yan-kwok. Longhair has said many times he does not love the central government. Ma Yan-kwok, who holds an Australian passport, has said he loves China. Recently, he used bad language in the Legislative Council to accuse Longhair of hating China. He said: “You’re not even a f**cking Chinese.”
If Hong Kong had two chief executives, it would be necessary to subdivide Government House. Longhair and Ma need to be kept at arm’s length (kept away from each other) or they will always be calling each other “f**cking Australian” and “not even f**cking Chinese”. But even a subdivided Government House would be much bigger than the subdivided flats many Hong Kong people live in. Hong Kong would have true democracy if we had two chief executives. Every time Longhair and Ma disagreed on a government policy they could decide with a fencing (the sport of fighting with swords) match. Financial Secretary John Tsang Chun-wah, who is a good fencer (noun), could teach them how to fence (verb). The fencing matches would be televised live on TV. Viewers would decide on the winner, just like on the popular TV show American Idol. No one can deny it is true democracy when TV viewers can decide on government policies by voting on who has won a fencing match.

香港政黨對於二○一七年普選行政長官有很大分歧。民主派所要的制度是即使中共不信任的人也可以參選。但中共及其支持者則明言候選人只能是愛港愛國和不會與中共政府對着幹的人。在這個僵局（impasse），兩邊都不肯讓步（budge）。Impasse就是僵持的局面，雙方無法達成共識，類近的詞語有deadlock和stalemate。To budge解作稍為讓步或妥協。
要打破僵局（break this impasse），或說要解開這個死結（end the deadlock），所餘時間無幾。我倒有個辦法，讓大家走出這個膠着的狀態（break the stalemate）——香港應該有兩個特首。民主陣營可以選長毛梁國雄，建制派則可選民建聯黨員馬恩國。長毛說過許多遍，他不愛中共；持有澳洲護照的馬恩國，則說他愛中國。最近他就在立法會用粗言穢語指責長毛恨惡中國，他說：「你甚至不是他媽的中國人。」
要是香港有兩個特首，那我們就需要將禮賓府一分為二。長毛和馬要保持一定距離（kept at arm’s length），互相指罵對方為「他媽的澳洲人」和「也不是他媽的中國人」。不過，即使禮賓府被分割，也還比許多香港人住的劏房要大。要是我們有兩個特首，香港就會有真民主。每一趟長毛和馬在政策上有分歧時，便可以用劍擊（fencing）比賽來決定。財政司司長曾俊華是個劍擊好手（fencer，名詞），大可教授他們劍擊（fence，動詞）技巧。劍擊（fencing）比賽將會在電視上直播，觀眾可以選擇誰人勝出，就像那很受歡迎的電視節目「美國偶像」。只要電視觀眾能以投票選出劍擊（fencing）獲勝者的方式，決定政府政策，那就沒有人可以否定這是真民主了。
