Solomons United National Party

The Solomon United National Party (SUN) was a political party in the Solomon Islands.

History

Following the 1967 elections, the party was established in 1968 by David Kausimae, Bill Ramsay and Frank Wickham.^[1]^[2] It was no more than a group of members of the Legislative Council and was primarily formed with the aim of lobbying the British authorities to introduce a cabinet system.^[3]

The party issued a manifesto in 1972,^[4] and was the only party to contest the 1973 elections.^[5] However, it won only one seat,^[5] and was reported to be defunct soon after the elections.^[6] Kausimae went on to found the Rural Alliance Party.^[4]^[7]
