Party supporters of the People’s National Party are in full election mode at the PNP St James Parish Meeting on Sunday, July 27, 2025.

The People’s National Party’s (PNP) Kingston & St Andrew Parish Meeting, which was controversially postponed due to a clash in date with the JLP mass rally in Half-Way Tree, is now set for Saturday, August 16.

The meeting is to be held in Cross Roads as originally planned.

Previously, the party indicated that they postponed the highly anticipated political event to prevent any possible clash between comrades and supporters of the opposing Jamaica Labour Party.

At Saturday’s meeting, PNP is expected to expound more on the manifesto it launched at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel on Tuesday, August 12, with all their plans for the country should the party be ushed into power in the general election set for September 3.
