Prime Minister Brigadier (retd) Mark Phillips delivered a spirited call to action at the launch of the People’s Progressive Party’s (PPP) re-election campaign, urging supporters to stay united, get ready for the polls, and secure “five more years of growth and visionary leadership.”“I will be red till a dead,” Phillips declared to loud applause. “We have red in all a we, so red is the winning colour.”Describing the PPP as a true national party, Phillips said its strength comes from diversity and inclusivity.“When you look out here at the PPP and the representation, this is a national party, a multi-ethnic party. All the people are included,” he said. “We said and we believe in diversity. We said and we believe in inclusivity.”He dismissed what he called the “coalition of the lightweights” and promised that PPP members would continue to fight harder than any opponent. “We are fighters. When we fight, we fight harder than the enemy,” Phillips said.The Prime Minister urged supporters to use the weeks ahead wisely. “Let us take this period between now and September 1 very seriously,” he said. “When you leave here, ensure your name is on the list.”Highlighting the government’s track record, Phillips pointed to major infrastructure projects under construction, including a new Demerara bridge, a bridge in Linden, and new highways.The People’s Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C) on Sunday afternoon kicked off its 2025 Elections campaign launch.
