House of Commons Das House of Commons ist das Unterhaus des britischen Parlaments, mit 651 Abgeordneten, die in Wahlkreisen in allgemeiner Wahl gewählt werden. Das Unterhaus hat die Regierungsgewalt inne und tagt etwa 175 Tage im Jahr unter Vorsitz des Sprechers. Als House of Lords wird das Oberhaus des britischen Parlaments bezeichnet. Die Mitglieder sind nicht gewählt, sondern werden auf Lebenszeit ernannt ("life peers") oder sie haben ihren Oberhaussitz geerbt ("hereditary peers"). Das House of Lords setzt sich aus Kirchenmännern und Adeligen zusammen ("Lords Spiritual/Temporal"). Es hat im Grunde keine Regierungsgewalt, kann aber vom Unterhaus erlassene Gesetze abändern und ist das oberste Berufungsgericht in Großbritannien (außer Schottland).
