The House of Commons

The House of Commons is one of the two houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, the other being the House of Lords. It is made up of Members of Parliament (MPs) who are elected by the public during general elections. The House of Commons is responsible for making and passing laws, scrutinizing the government’s work, and representing the interests of citizens. It plays a key role in shaping national policy and budgetary decisions. Sessions in the Commons often involve debates and votes on proposed legislation, making it central to the UK's democratic process.
