Britain and the British. Administration in Bermuda is based on a constitution adopted in 1968. A
governor, appointed by the British crown, is responsible for external
affairs, internal security, defense, and the police and is advised by an
executive council on other matters. The executive council consists of
the premier, who is the head of the leading party in the House of
Assembly, and at least six other members of the legislature.
Bermuda has a structured government and some people will find the
country to be somewhat strict and formal.
The Bermuda legislature is comprised of the House of Assembly, which is
elected, and an appointed
Senate. The 40 members of the House are popularly elected to terms of up
to five years. The leading political organizations are the United
Bermuda Party and the Progressive Labor Party.
