Francis Alexis, Grenadian politician and lawyer, currently serves as president of the Grenada Bar Association.
He was admitted to practice before the High Court of Justice in Grenada on December 10, 1980, having earned his LLM (1976), LLB (1973) and BA (1971) from the University of the West Indies (UWI), Cave Hill, Barbados.
[1] Alexis has been active in Grenadian politics since 1983; while in exile in Barbados during Maurice Bishop's People's Revolutionary Government (PRG), he founded the Grenada Democratic Movement (GDM) as an alliance of various exile groups opposed to the PRG.
In 1987, Alexis, along with George Brizan, broke with the NNP to form the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
He subsequently broke with the NDC, and has since founded the Democratic Labor Party [3] (DLP) and the People's Labour Movement (PLM).
