  1. we haven't a clue and neither have the MPs that run it.


  2. Like Piles, you suffer it for a while, get used to them, then someone brings out a new cream and it's okay for a while but then the pain in the a** is back.

  3. Easy...allow islamic radicals to slowly gain control allowing the entire nation to succumb to terrorist influence.

  4. It doesn't work, the MPs just sit around thinking of new ways to tax the paupers and claim expenses!

  5. England is falling apart The U K is falling apart and they know it Why do you think they are so angry?

  6. Executive and judicial power in the United Kingdom is sourced in the Crown; the wearer of the Crown, the Sovereign, is currently Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth and Defender of the Faith.

    To aid the Sovereign there is Parliament, our bicameral legislature.  It is comprised of two chambers - the elected House of Commons (ancient French for 'communes' - regions), and the unelected House of Lords (properly termed 'peers').

    Historically both chambers were equal in power and operated on a broadly similar circumstances to the US Congress, but this has now changed.

    The Queen appoints a Prime Minister as her chief executive officer and First Lord of the Treasury.  Technically it can anybody she likes, but in practises she always chooses the individual who commands a majority of the MPs in the House of Commons.  The Prime Minister then appoints his or her Cabinet, who are usually from the Commons, but can also come from the Lords.

    This government continues until the Queen dismisses it, or it resigns.  Every 5 years (or less, if the Prime Minister asks the Queen), an election can be held to update the Commons.  If the Government ends up with a minority in the Commons it resigns.

    The House of Lords' function is that of revising chamber.  Being unelected it is constitutionally bound to submit to the superior right of the Commons to get its way, but the Commons regularly accepts Lords amendments as their scrutinisation is of a superior quality.

  7. To cut a long story very short..............................

    A bi-cameral legislature : Parliament consisting of the Houses of Parliament - the House of Commons & the House of Lords.Member of Parliament are elected by universal franchise to the House of Commons The political party with a majority of Members in the Commons form the government (executive) The third branch is the independent judiciary.

    The government is cabinet based with specific responsibilities assigned to Ministers who 'manage' their respective ministries via civil servants who are charged with execution of government policy.The Cabinet is chaired by the Prime Minister - the leader of whichever party is in government.

    A large portion of day to day government is also in practice delivered by local councils.

  8. England doesn't have its own government. There is the British government which waldo has described above.

  9. It ISNT at the moment.....

  10. I didn't realise it did work!

  11. Badly.

  12. Badly, but much better than yours.
