The People’s Labour Party (PLP), the fastest-growing political force in the Caribbean and now the second-largest political party in St. Kitts and Nevis, is set to command national attention with its highly anticipated monthly press conference. This event, scheduled for Wednesday, November 27, 2024, at the St. Kitts Marriott Hotel, promises to be a defining moment in the country’s political landscape following an eventful week of startling revelations and national controversies.
PLP Leader and former Prime Minister, Dr. Hon. Timothy Harris, will take center stage alongside PLP Chairwoman Wendy Phipps and other influential members of the party. The press conference is expected to be a dynamic session of discussions, questions, and answers, offering the public and media direct access to the party’s perspectives on key issues plaguing the nation.
Key Issues on the Agenda

1. PM Drew’s Alleged Misconduct:
   The PLP will delve into recent allegations surrounding Prime Minister Dr. Hon. Terrance Drew, including claims of dishonesty linked to his appointment of Philippe Martinez as a Public Benefactor (PBO). This controversy deepens with Martinez reportedly embroiled in a RICO lawsuit and explosive allegations aired in a recent podcast implicating both PM Drew and Attorney General Garth Wilkin.
2. Crime Crisis:
   With violent crime escalating to alarming levels, PLP leaders will address the government’s response—or lack thereof—and propose solutions to restore safety and security in the Federation.
3. Deplorable State of Healthcare:
   PLP leaders are set to shine a spotlight on the critical issues plaguing the healthcare system, which many argue is teetering on collapse under the current administration.
4. Economic Fallout:
   Advisor Austin Edingborough’s recent claims of a “black hole of debt” allegedly created by the government will be scrutinized, with the PLP highlighting the implications for national economic stability and development.
   A Party on the Rise
   The PLP’s growth trajectory remains unmatched, drawing support from a broad cross-section of society and positioning itself as a viable alternative to the ruling Labour Party. With Dr. Harris, the Federation’s third Prime Minister, at the helm, the PLP continues to resonate with citizens and residents seeking transformative leadership and accountability.
   This press conference is not just a routine political gathering but a pivotal opportunity for the PLP to outline its vision and challenge the ruling administration on its performance. Media houses and citizens are urged to attend this groundbreaking event, which promises to reshape the national discourse.
   Stay tuned for updates as the PLP takes the stage this Wednesday, setting the tone for a new chapter in St. Kitts and Nevis politics.
