Georgetown – The Alliance for Change (AFC) signaled that they will be conducting a peaceful picketing exercise outside of the parliament tomorrow.
This protest action is being called to register the disapproval of the abuse of worker rights in the bauxite industry as well as Government’s intransigence in enacting Freedom of Information Laws.
The AFC believes that the administration’s inaction as a foreign owned company trample upon the inalienable rights of workers is tantamount to a complete abandonment of an earlier espoused working class ideology.
The party is of the view that the apathetic and retrograde stance which the Government has adopted with regard to the enacting of Freedom of Information laws reflects an inherent control agenda 
which is abrasive to the AFC’s guiding principle of liberal democracy.
Last week the party staged a protest action in front of the Office of the President and within minutes a group of protesters were gathered in front of the AFC’s head office in Campbellville throwing slanderous remarks at the party’s presidential candidate Khemraj Ramjattan.
Ramjattan at the time claimed that the group was a plot by the ruling PPP/C, since he had recognized several persons from the party he was once with.
