LEADER OF OPPOSITION SHOULD BE A LEADER ELECTED BY THE WHOLE OPPOSITION.

A controversy is raging as to whether and if so how should a Leader of Opposition should be selected.

LOP has an important function of representing the opposition before the Speaker.
So there should be one.

In my opinion LOP should be someone who can best represent the views of the opposition as a whole.
Therefore he should be a person most acceptable to the entire opposition. The best way to achieve this would be to elect a person by the process of a single transferable vote by all members belonging to the opposition.
