Answer:
A pressure group is an organisation whose members share common interest and seeks to influence governmental policy.
They differ from political parties in three key ways:
They have no intention of starting up their own government – only influence the one currently in power.
They focus on one main area of concern and thoroughly discuss and campaign for that issue; political parties have a manifesto which covers a very wide variety of issues.
They usually do not have elected members like political parties which must have elected candidates.
