Houses of Parliament

Die zwei Häuser des britischen Parlaments: House of Commons und House of Lords. Der Westminster Palace (Westminsterpalast), der Gebäudekomplex im Zentrum von London, wo beide Häuser untergebracht sind, ist auch als Houses of Parliament bekannt

House of Commons

Eines der zwei Häuser der britischen Houses of Parliament, das Unterhaus des britischen Parlaments. Die gewählten Members of Parliament treten hier zusammen, um innen- und außenpolitische Themen zu debattieren und über Gesetzesvorschläge abzustimmen.

House of Lords

Eines der zwei Häuser der britischen Houses of Parliament, das Oberhaus des britischen Parlaments. Seine Mitglieder werden nicht gewählt, sondern haben als Peers (Adelige), durch Geburt, Amt oder Erhebung in den Adelsstand, ein Anrecht auf einen Sitz im Oberhaus. Aufgrund entsprehender Reformbestrebungen ist es wahrscheinlich, dass der Anspruch der erblichen Peers auf Sitz und Stimme im Oberhaus abgeschafft werden wird. Das House of Lords hat die Aufgabe, Gesetze, die vom House of Commons verabschiedet wurden, zu diskutieren und sie entweder anzunehmen oder Änderungen vorzuschlagen. Allerdings hat es nur noch die Macht, Gesetze zu verzögern und bei Etat-Vorlagen hat es überhaupt kein Mitspracherecht mehr. Das House of Lords fungiert auch als oberstes Gericht in Großbritannien.
