Britain is a parliamentary democracy with a constitutional monarch.
Queen Elisabeth II is the head of state, but she has no real power.
In law the queen is the head of the executive branch and a part of the
legislative branch but in fact her role is mostly ceremonial.
She acts on the advice of her ministers.
In Britain it is Parliament that has the power. Parliament makes laws.
It is made up of the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
The members of the House of Lords are permanent- mostly lords and people
who have been made lords for life. The lords can revise and even delay bills.
They have real influence in politics. The Commons have much more real power.
The members of the Commons are elected by the people. They control the
executive branch and discuss most important political problems.
The largest party in the Commons forms the government and its leader
becomes the Prime Minister. The people do not elect the Prime Minister directly.
Officially Parliament appoints Prime Minister. The Prime Minister chooses
the Cabinet and non-cabinet ministers. They are all collectively responsible
for the government, the executive branch, and individually responsible for
their department.
