The United Progressive Party (UPP) is a political party in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.[2] The party was formed on 2 January 2020. Its ideology centers on progressivism and decentralization. They had planned to contest the 2020 Vincentian general election,[3] but suspended their campaign on 3 October.[4] Mark J.N Doyle, the party chair, announced that the UPP would contest in 2025 instead; for 2020, he expressed support for the New Democratic Party over the incumbent Unity Labour Party.[5] Their logo is heavily influenced by that of the Jamaica Labour Party.
