The New National Party (NNP) is distinguished qualitatively from the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) and other opposition groupings in Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique in many important respects. To begin with, we have the better development Plan for our tri-island state going forward into the next five (5) years. In addition, we have a better, more diverse and experienced Team for Progress, the better party and national leader, a more solid and dynamic historical background, a better record of solid achievements and performance and a far more attractive and respectable international profile. Our history as a political party in the vanguard of nation building is more successful than other political parties nationwide and runs parallel with the ancestral spirit of progress of our promising democracy. As a progressive nationalist political party, we talk- up Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique where the others talk her down. We see opportunities and progress all throughout our society while the NDC in particular sees only the need for strife, negativity and disharmony. Our party relies on the rear-view mirror of our rich ancestral past to guide us intelligently on the road to progress and in doing what is right and in the interest of the majority of our people. The uncle (Tom) Tillman Thomas party on the other hand, remains hostage to a foreign and outdated ideology rooted in the denial of the human spirit to progress and flourish. Where we put our people first the NDC puts them last by supporting the racist and bigoted sentiments of ex-colonial representatives who persist in labeling our rich history and people “a joke” because they see us as incapable of exercising self-government on account of the colour of our skin. Our party is unique and history-making in another fundamental respect. Our house is solid and the pillars are strong because we have a succession plan anchored in the soul, wisdom, energy and integrity of our women and youth. Some 33% of the members of the current NNP cabinet of the country are women. Among all fifteen (15) candidates that will be contesting the next general elections for the NNP, some 27% are young people under forty (40) years of age. And our women make up a whopping 40% of all fifteen (15) NNP candidates who will be contesting the upcoming elections. These are historic statistics unmatched presently by any other political party in the English-speaking Caribbean. The New National Party (NNP) joins the League of Nations such as Sweden, France, Spain, Germany, Norway and Finland in being a beacon in the Caribbean of female representation in politics. We are the feminist party of the Caribbean which explains our strong defense in policy of the rights of women and children. We are also the party of youth, vigour and vitality. What these facts tell us, is that in the last twelve (12) to thirteen (13) years we have not only been busy changing the infrastructure of Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique but that we have been busy changing ourselves as Grenadians for the better from the inside. When our women and young people in support of the NNP come forward in such great numbers to offer service to the country through the political system it tell us that lives have been progressively transformed for the better in ways that cannot stop now. This is the meaning of the massive support we continue to have throughout our tri-island state and why we are correct and truthful when we say We are the Change! From the New National Party (NNP)
