Several opposition parties were THIS WEEK left hot under the collar after fellow opposition and DA leader John Steenhuisen labelled some of them as 'popcorn parties' and  ' mercenaries " for campaigning in Western Cape. Parties such as Rise Mzansi, GOOD and ActionSA were not impressed by the comments and had a few unkind words for the DA leader. Steenhuisen's attack on smaller opposition parties comes as some pollsters are suggesting that the DA's majority in the Western Cape is shrinking.  A few days before that Steeinhuisen had also intimated that it may be a possibility that the DA may form a coalition government with the ANC after the May 29 election. The statement left fellow Multi Party Charter members like Freedom Front + fuming accusing the DA of turning it's back on the opposition coalition.
In our Sunday Morning Discussion we are looking at these accusations and counter accusations flying within the opposition ranks and to help us understand the dynamics Bongiwe Zwane spoke to politics Professor, Andre Duvenage from North West University and Angelo Fick, Research Director at Auwal Socio-Economic Research Institute.
