BCP, BNF nuptials of convenience feasible

There is, in fact, a very strong possibility that the BCP and BNF might contest the next general elections as a coalition.  This comes after a BCP conference resolved that it would consider forming a coalition with the BNF to contest the 2019 general election.

There is widespread belief that the BCP and BNF can harness more on their combined figures to mount a strong challenge against the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) at the 2019 general election. The BCP recently hinted that it would consider bilateral relations with the BNF in 2019 if the problems in the UDC were not resolved timely.
