EDSP to form coalition with Tamarod in parliamentary elections

The Egyptian Democratic Social Party (EDSP) and \Tamarod campaign announced on Thursday that they are forming a coalition ahead of upcoming parliamentary elections.

“We want to to prevent the dark forces from accessing parliamentary seats,” said EDSP leader Mohamed Abul Ghar.

Mohamed Abdel Aziz, co-founder of the Tamarod campaign, said the EDSP was the first party to designate its offices for Tamarod to collect signatures withdrawing confidence in Islamist President Mohamed Morsy ahead of 30 June protests. “It is natural that we coordinate together for the elections,” he said.
