Toledo Progressive Party

The Toledo Progressive Party (TPP) was a minor political party in the Toledo District of southern Belize, active in the late 1970s and 1980s. The main leader of the party was Alejandro Vernon. The party had limited popular support, and was largely perceived as representing Guatemalan interests in the territorial dispute between the two countries. The party addressed two sessions of the United Nations General Assembly Fourth Committee, arguing in favour of Guatemalan positions. It contested the 1979 elections, gathering around 4% of the vote in the Toledo constituencies.
