BCP, BNF might join forces for 2019 general elections

This comes after the BCP conference here endorsed the registration of the amendments to the revised Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) constitution and resolved that if the problems within the UDC persist and impede progress within the coalition the BCP should engage in bilateral discussions with the BNF with a view to forging a working relationship.

BCP president Dumelang Saleshando told a media briefing after the conference on Monday that negotiations for a reconfigured opposition coalition with the BNF have to start forthwith while the problems within the UDC are being addressed.
