The People's Labour Movement (PLM) was a political party in Grenada founded by Francis Alexis. It was one of the oldest political parties of Grenada. It became defunct after the 2008 elections.[1]
The PLM was one of the oldest political parties of Grenada, along with the Grenada United Labour Party and was originally named the Democratic Labour Party.[2] The organization was created by the former Attorney General Francis Alexis. In the late 1990s, Alexis left the party to work on his political issues. In 2002, the party merged with the Maurice Bishop Patriotic Movement. In the 2003 elections the party received 2% of the popular vote but failed to win a seat. For the July 2008 elections, it formed a coalition with its longtime rival the Grenada United Labour Party; the combined United Labour Platform fielded 11 candidates for the 15 seats,[3] receiving just 0.8% of the vote and again failing to win a seat. The party became defunct after the elections.
