Candidates from Anguilla’s three political parties have taken to the airwaves to outline their policies and share their visions for the island ahead of the 26 February general election.
Representatives from the Anguilla Progressive Movement (APM), the Anguilla Reliable Team (ART), and the Anguilla United Front (AUF) have used the live platform to engage with voters directly.
It is just one of the many ways in which election hopefuls have been actively campaigning since Premier Ellis Webster set the election date on 27 January, along with public events and direct engagement.
Anguilla Focus will be publishing a separate report on the five independent candidates.
