Singapore's main opposition party. It has few policy differences with the PAP and positions itself as a check on government rather than an alternative to it (sometimes called "PAP-lite"). It has been cautious about growing too fast, fearing voters would think twice if it ran enough candidates to form a majority government.
At the 2020 election the WP won ten out of 93 seats. At the May 2025 election it contested only 26 of 97 seats but defended all ten seats it held and will receive two more under a scheme for the best-performing losing candidates. It received more votes overall than the PAP in the constituencies in which it stood.
