UWP TO STAGE MASSIVE NATIONAL RALLY EXCITING THE BASE – PREPARING FOR GOVERNANCE

 

Following the phenomenal success of its recent 37th National Convention, the United Workers Party will be staging a massive national rally in the southern town of Vieux Fort this Sunday, August 25th, 2013. The event seeks to build on the heightened and growing interest in the Party as it prepares to take over the reins of governance when the opportunity arises.

At the rally party, supporters and enthusiasts will hear from the newly elected leadership of the party and other speakers who will address a litany of concerns, and the unprecedented hardship facing all Saint Lucians under the rule of the Labour Party Administration. The rally will be a demonstration of Party unity and strength as the UWP readies itself to regain office and restore confidence and pride in Saint Lucians locally and in the diaspora.

The national rally will be held near the Vieux Fort Town Hall and is scheduled to begin at 4:00 pm. Rally organizers have planned two motorcades which will travel along the western and eastern coasts of the island and culminate at the site of the rally. The respective motorcades will leave Castries and Soufriere at 12:00 noon and traverse the various communities in a post convention show of force.

The Vieux Fort rally is the first of a series of activities to mobilize the Party’s base and consolidate the UWP as a viable and potent political force. The United Workers Party has assumed the posture of a more organized and vigilant opposition, and is committed to giving quality representation to the people whilst preparing for the good governance of the country after the next general elections.
