People's Working Party

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The People's Working Party was a political party in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Under the leadership of Burton Williams,[1] it contested the 1998 general elections, but received just 45 votes and failed to win a seat.[2] It did not contest any further elections.[3]

One of the party's main platforms revolved around the re-institution of the local government system as a means to increase individual participation in matters relating to the country's political affairs.[1]
