Elections

Political systems in Europe are characterized by the idea of democracy. A key feature of these systems is the need to hold elections at regular intervals to enable the population to express its political wishes by electing a parliament.

In most of the countries under discussion at least all men and women- with the exception of special groups –have the right to give their vote for support of the party or candidate of their choice. On election day when the country goes to the polls, every voter goes to a polling station. It is a key element of the system that the voter should be able to mark the ballot paper with the name of his choice without observation. When the polls close, the votes are counted.

In Britain, the candidate with the highest number of votes is elected as the Member of Parliament for a given area. There are three main political parties in Great Britain. They are the Liberal, the Conservative and the Labour. The system of elections in Britain is in contrast to that of proportional representation, which allows a number of seats in the Parliament for a particular party proportional to the percentage of the vote received. This system leads to more coalition government, where parties whose political views and aims are different may join together to form a government because no one party has achieved a considerable majority. Each party will then have to compromise and concentrate on what can actually be achieved by an alliance with other parties.



The Prime Minister is usually the leader of the party that has a majority in the House of Commons. The Prime Minister usually takes policy decisions with the agreement of his Cabinet. Each new Prime Minister may make changes in the size of his Cabinet and may create new ministries or make other changes. The Prime Minister holds Cabinet meetings at his (her) house at number 10 Downing Street, which is very near the Houses of Parliament in Westminster.
