The political situation in Fiji is in turmoil after the main opposition party got suspended. Fiji’s Registrar of Political Parties suspended Social Democratic Liberal party (Sodelpa) leaving parliament with just 3 opposition members (from the much smaller National Federation party) ahead of a key national budget debate. Sodelpa had won 39.85% of votes in the 2018 election holding 21 seats in the 51-member Parliament.
