Question

Describe the composition and power of british house of commons

Answer 1

Answer:

The Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known internationally as the UK Parliament, British Parliament, or Westminster Parliament, and domestically simply as Parliament, is the supreme legislative body of the United Kingdom, the Crown dependencies and the British Overseas Territories.[3][4] It alone possesses legislative supremacy and thereby ultimate power over all other political bodies in the UK and the overseas territories. Parliament is bicameral but has three parts, consisting of the Sovereign (the Queen-in-Parliament), the House of Lords, and the House of Commons (the primary chamber).[5][6] The two houses meet in the Palace of Westminster in the City of Westminster, one of the inner boroughs of the capital city, London.

Answer 2

The British Parliament consists of two chambers: the lower house, which is the House of Commons, and the upper house, the House of Lords. The House of Commons is democratically elected, usually every four or five years. After each general election, the party that wins the most seats gets to form the government. The second largest party is officially called the Opposition.
