‘This is a time for change,’ Friday says at NDP’s Warm Up Rally

In a spirited address to New Democratic Party (NDP) supporters in London, Opposition Leader Godwin Friday declared that political change is imminent in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Speaking at a campaign rally ahead of the anticipated general election, Friday emphasized the urgent need for a new government to address the nation’s pressing issues. ‘This is a time for change,’ he asserted, rallying his supporters to seize the moment. Friday highlighted the NDP’s five-year effort to develop comprehensive plans for national progress, pledging to honor their duty and begin governing immediately if elected. He reassured voters about the integrity of the electoral process, emphasizing the secrecy of their votes and urging them to vote for change. Friday criticized the current Unity Labour Party (ULP) government for its failures, including mismanagement of crises, high unemployment, and unfulfilled promises. He accused the ULP of attempting to win votes through last-minute gestures and empty promises, calling for a break from the past and a move towards a brighter future. Friday’s message resonated with the crowd, who expressed readiness for change, signaling a potential shift in the political landscape of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
