Goodnight Domkrag! As Barata Phathi form new party

The rebellion has thrown the traditionally faction-ridden BDP into disarray and stoked fears of a legal crisis as upto 20 MPs are suspected to be Barata-Phathi members or are sympathetic to the faction. The government could be thrown into disarray should the 20 MPs all decide to cross over. "If there is need, we will form an alliance with the opposition to bring normalcy to this country," one of the delegates said.

Over 300 delegates from around the country unanimously decided on Saturday that there is no going back to the BDP.  If all goes according to plan, the new party will hold a congress in July when it will be officially launched.
