What’s wrong with strategising for the next elections???? If you can’t beat them join them. It’s up to MCP & PP to start strategising. If you can’t prepare properly how can you expect to win any competition? We have heard sportsmen from deferent disciplines of sports saying that they lost cos of complacency. Most of the Parties or Teams when they have won they take the victory behind them & start analysing the weaknesses & strong points so that they can stay on top so I don’t see any concern here that UDF & DPP are planning to almagamate or… Read more »

Nothing new here! Politics is a game of numbers. Any shrewd politician cannot leave himself exposed intentionally. Why should anyone feel uncomfortable with a party trying to consolidate its position as a party in government? Is this a case of trying to promote selfish interests?

If only the author of this article can remove DPP and UDF in the article and replace them with Conservatives and Liberals (in the UK) she will see how hollow her arguments are.

Emily, though Malawians opted for more parties to get diverse views on national issues, on the other hand this clearly shows that Malawi is too small to host more than two major political parties. Look at Britain and USA, how many political parties (major ones) do they have? It’s high time these small parties got swallowed by bigger parties. Otherwise instead of offering diverse views they will end up confusing people. Some of these parties have similar agenda and I feel it’s wiser just to merge the leadership and work together towards the common good of the nation. We are… Read more »
