The public elect 650

Members of Parliament

(MPs)

Only men are allowed to become MPs

voting but will question the

law through debating

MPs sit on green chairs in the

House of CommonsBut there isn’t enough seats for them all!




Let’s up the tempo!



The Lords wear silly wigs?

The Lords are nicknamed the

‘Lordy Lordy Lords’

The Lords keep an eye on the

decisions and actions of Government

The Lords are elected by the public and create new laws

Are these MPs dressed up as Peggy, Grant and Phil politicians?
