Parliamentary Democracy in GB Britain is a parliamentary democracy with a constitutional monarch. Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state now but she has no real power. In law the queen is the head of executive branch but in fact her role is mostly ceremonial. She acts on the advice of her ministers. In Britain it is a Parliament that has a power. Parliament makes lows. 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 of 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 Prime Minister. The people do not elect the Prime Minister directly. Officially the Parliament appoints Prime Minister. The Prime Minister chooses Cabinet and non-cabinet ministers. They are all collectively responsible for government? The executive branch, and individually responsible for their departments.

But the President is elected directly by the people and he is not a member of the American parliament, Congress, the legislative branch of the federal government, is made up the Senate and the House of representatives. There are 100 senator, 2 for each state. The House has 435 members, the number of Representatives from each state depends on its population. Congress makes all laws and each house of Congress can introduce a new project. Each can vote against the project passed by the other. In both houses agree the project becomes law. The President and his Administration represent the executive branch of the federal government. The Administration includes the Secretaries who are heads of the executive departments. Each department is responsible for a specific area. The President appoints the Secretaries but the Senate must approve his appointments. The legislative and executive branches of government are involved in the system of checks and balances.
