 Leader of the Opposition (Fiji) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In addition, the Leader of the Opposition chooses 8 of the 32 members of the Senate, Fiji's upper house of Parliament, and has the right to be consulted about the appointment of the Chief Justice.
The appointment is not at the president's personal discretion, however, as he is required by the Constitution to appoint the person most acceptable to the majority of the Opposition (defined as members of the House of Representatives who belong to political parties not represented in the Cabinet).
It did not originate in Fiji but has a long tradition; in British constitutional theory, the Leader of the Opposition must pose a formal alternative to the government, ready to form a government himself should the Prime Minister lose the confidence of the House of Representatives.

The Deputy Leader of the Opposition, in leading for the Opposition, argued that the Opposition was going to reject this amendment on contempt, or part of it.

DEAN BROWN (Deputy Leader of the Opposition): My question is directed to the Minister for Education and Children's Services.

By convention the political Party which has majority support in the House of Assembly (its 'confidence') nominates its leader to be the Premier.

 TIME Europe Web Exclusive: Leader of the Opposition 5/3/2000
The well-spoken opposition leader earns most of his support from Zimbabwe's urban workers, particularly younger voters.
The parliamentary elections are likely to be split along urban-rural lines, and many see Mugabe's belated push for land reform as a crude attempt to shore up the rural vote, traditionally the stronghold of the President's ZANU-PF party.
It was the first time Mugabe or his party had ever been beaten in a public vote.

Is Limbaugh really an homme serieux, a man with the gravitas to be a — let alone the — republican leader?
But he is larger than a leader of the political opposition.
But it is Kemp's partner in Empower America, William Bennett, who must take the prize as the most convinced Rushophile among Republican leaders.
