  UDP UK

  Welcome to the Home page of UDP UK

  UDP United Kingdom is a not for profit organisation founded on the 27^th February 2010 as an overseas chapter of the United Democratic Party (UDP). The UDP is an active political party in The Gambia.

  We recognise that the UDP is, inter alia:

  • The biggest political party in The Gambia;
  • Intends to make credible political and constitutional reforms necessary to nurture a vibrant democratic society based on respect for the rule of law and the fundamental rights and freedoms of the citizenry;
  • Intends to introduce a presidential term limit as way of ending the culture of self perpetuating rule;
  • Intends to safeguard and strengthen the independence and the integrity of the judiciary particularly the criminal justice system;
  • Is committed to the judicious appropriation of taxpayers’ money;
  • Intends to create a conductive environment for attracting the much badly needed foreign investment into the country;
  • Have the political will to tackle the prevalent youth unemployment issue;
  • Notwithstanding all the above, the party has significant financial constraints which impedes it’s day to day operations in The Gambia.

  Objectives

  Our objective is:

  • To assist the party’s fund raising drive in the United Kingdom as well as collecting membership fees on behalf of the party; 
  • Provide technical and logistical support to the party; and
  • To organise the party in the United Kingdom in anticipation of the much talked about diaspora enfranchisement expected to take place before the next presidential election due in 2021.
