Politics in SVG

St. Vincent and the Grenadines I love you. Our little home is an independent country which is a member of the British Common Wealth of nations.
The people of this little nation elects who they know have the qualities of a good leader. General elections are held every five years. The campaigning season normally begin during the last year of each electoral term.  However in recent times, both the government and opposition seem to be in almost permanent election mood, which means that there's no end to their campaign.
We all know of the parties competing for government ( Unity Labour Party, New Democratic Party, Green Party and a new party which was formed called DDP). Our country is currently governed by the Unity Labour Party, a party that have our education in their highest interest. 
The opposition on the other hand often criticizes for the sake of criticizing. 
Citizens are also advertising affected by politics as family and friends get divided of different political persuasions.  Therefore in my opinion, politics in S.V.G is one of the most diverse factors in our society which needs to be unified.  It is also hampering our efforts to co-operate and develop as a people.
