In Britain the Queen is the Head of State, but in fact she doesn’t rule the country as she has no power. The Queen is the symbol of the country, its traditions. She is very rich. She travels about the United Kingdom, meets different people and visits schools, hospitals and other special places. The real power in the country belongs to the British Parliament and to the British Government. The British Parliament has two houses: the House of Commons and the House of Lords. 5 seofGreatBritain

The House of Lords does not have much power but it is very important as it can discuss and change laws, it can delay laws too. The members of the House of Lords are not elected, they are selected. These members are permanent. They are often aristocrats, people of the church, lawyers and former politicians or life peers 6 spx?id=thehousesofParliament
