Future Guernsey, formerly Guernsey Partnership of Independents until November 2021, [3] [4] is a political party in Guernsey founded in August 2020 by Gavin St Pier, Heidi Soulsby and Lyndon Trott. [5]
As the Guernsey Partnership of Independents, it did not impose a whip on its members, and effectively operated as a big tent grouping of independents.
When the party was founded, Gavin St Pier held the position of Chief Minister, a position he failed to retain in the October 2020 election for President of the Policy and Resources Committee.
In October 2020 Heidi Soulsby was appointed Deputy Chief Minister, [6] a position she held until resigning from the Policy & Resources Committee in October 2022. [7]
On 1 December 2021, the party was rebranded from GPI to Future Guernsey. [8] [9]
Lyndon Trott was elected President of the Policy and Resources Committee of Guernsey, becoming Chief Minister on 13 December 2023, following the vote of no-confidence in Peter Ferbrache. [10] Soulsby was elected back onto Policy & Resources Committee in December 2023, as Vice President. [11]
