The "Revolution Salvation Front" a coalition of 18 opposition forces are set to march on the presidential palace on Tuesday to pressure the president to rescind his controversial declaration and his decision to put the draft national charter to national referendum on 15 December. The opposition forces, which have been staging an open-ended sit-in on Tahrir Square for the past ten days, have denounced the constitution as illegitimate because it was drafted by an "unrepresentative" Constituent Assembly following mass walk outs by liberal, leftist and church members of the constitution-drafting body.
