Which are the strong opposition parties this GE?

Of the six opposition parties that could be contesting the General Election, no more than half are deemed as strong contenders, according to two analysts. Eugene Tan, Assistant Professor of Law at the SMU, said the WP is in a "class of its own" with the NSP and SPP coming in second. Prof Tan said the SPP's "only draw" is veteran opposition politician Chiam while the NSP is still "a bit rough around the edges" despite having matured somewhat.
