Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the supreme legislative body in the United Kingdom and British overseas territories. Parliament alone possesses legislative supremacy and thereby ultimate power over all other political bodies in the UK and its territories. At its head is the Sovereign, Queen Elizabeth II. The parliament is bicameral, with an upper house, the House of Lords, and a lower house, the House of Commons. The Queen is the third component of the legislature. This book studies the parliament of the United Kingdom including bicameralism, Act of Parliament, House of Commons of England, and The Rights Honourable.
