CMC’s great contradiction: Is Talib the coalition’s candidate or Unite’s political project?

- Advertisement -Dear Editor,The CMC coalition was supposed to settle one fundamental question: Should the opposition alliance be party-led or candidate-led? But they found themselves facing five registered political parties that had insisted on a party-led arrangement. The position of the majority of registered parties was gradually overwhelmed by two parties and a growing collection of political movements. - Advertisement -If the argument was genuinely about building a candidate-led coalition, then Unite’s political identity should arguably take a back seat to the broader coalition. And the public is entitled to ask:If Talib is now the coalition’s candidate, where does Unite end and Talib’s CMC candidacy begin?
