Malcolm Conlan, The Self-Proclaimed Brit Savior Of The Philippines

LONDON—Self-proclaimed “Filipino advocate” Malcolm Conlan, a Brit with an impressive collection of Barong Tagalog and unsolicited opinions, has once again inserted himself into Philippine affairs.

Conlan, best known for his prolific letter-writing campaigns—to Donald Trump, King Charles, the Emir of Qatar and, for all we know, Santa Claus—has turned his online petitions into an art form.

Who can forget his heartfelt plea to strip Maria Ressa of Filipino citizenship, because apparently, Conlan wants it for himself.

Filipinos worldwide are reportedly baffled. “Who appointed him our spokesperson?” asked one netizen. “Did we miss an election?”

Sources say Conlan spends his days refreshing change.org, awaiting new causes to champion—preferably those that involve defending Rodrigo Duterte, demanding international intervention, or reminding people he once rode a jeepney.

Is it time for us to start a petition om change.org to ban Conlan from well change.org?

As of press time, King Charles, et.al. have yet to respond to his letters, presumably too busy being actual heads of state.
