In the United States, I know you are going on the election. However, what do you think about the one going on in other countries to up to you now? Well lucky for you, and I was studying politics at Oxford in the past year and I can tell all of you about BRITISH politics!
In the UK, we have two major political parties, the Labour Party and the Conservative Party.
Labour Party - Labour Party when Queen Victoria was on the throne has been created in 1900. Since it was established in order to take care of the workers, it gets its name. Party symbol is red is the rose. The past five years, labor has become a large political party second in the parliament. Past leaders, because he it was found eating a tricky bacon sandwich, but it was also PM lost the last election in 2015, 3 election for 10 years Prime Minister who lost the election in 2010 Tony Blair who won in, will include Gordon Brown and Ed Miliband. The current leader of the workers is a fellow Jeremy Corbin. Self-styled democratic socialism, Corbin is a critical strong social inequality and poverty in the UK, has been awarded for his work as an international human rights activist.
Conservative Party - Conservative Party that Otherwise known as the Conservative Party is the largest political party in the oldest party and the National Assembly in Europe. Past leaders, World War II and Margaret Thatcher, will include Winston Churchill won the first female prime minister. The current leader of the Tory party is David Cameron. He is the past five years, it has been the prime minister. Although they are still interesting, David Cameron, he might have been intimate and pig, was once the bottom of the big scandal that exceed the scope of the claims, however, these claims are, what for them We do not have the appropriate evidence. Conservatives, we want right wing economic policies and more freedom for companies.
Now, there are many problems.
EUROPEAN UNION (EU) - The European Union (EU) is a political and economic union of 28 countries. Britain is one of these countries. Both the Conservatives and the support of the Labor Party, however, such as leaving it the UK Independence Party (UKIP) supporters, will stay the parties, to the EU. (Known as europhiles otherwise) EU's supporters, it makes it possible for people to move more freely between countries, and claims to be the good for the sake of trade. Opponents of the EU (known are as eurosceptics otherwise), it is limited and, we argue that there are too many immigrants. Referendum of the EU on June 23, will be this year.
TRIDENT - Encompass the UK Trident program is a nuclear weapons system consisting of armed 4 Vanguard class submarines in the Trident II D-5 ballistic missiles it is possible to provide a thermal nuclear warheads. This is the most expensive and the most powerful features of the British army. Some people, in opposition to Trident, I think it's a waste of our money.
NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE (NHS)[ - National Health Service (NHS) is the health care system due to public funds for England. This is the largest and oldest of the single-payer health care system in the world. It was introduced by the Labour government. The issue here is whether there is a need for more or less privatization of the NHS. Some people, we are to think that there is a need to nationalize completely NHS, other people think we should be fully privatized it.
THE BRITISH MONARCHY - Britain is a constitutional monarchy. This is the Queen of England, Elizabeth II is headed. Because it is a historical tradition, some of the people (royalist) other people (Republicans) are opposed to it, believing that the royal family has been definitely benefit scroungers, however, monarchy the supports.
SCOTLAND - Conservative Party and the Labour Party are opposed to the independence of both of Scotland. Scottish National Party (SNP), however, support it. That they are England, Westminster, believe that you have too much control over the Scottish, they are too right-wing. To Scottish independence referendum 2014, once there were, but they stayed in the UK, 45% wanted to leave yet!
PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION - The UK is a little strange. Over here, we are with all kinds of different constituencies, which party would win the election, to get a certain number of these elections. They get all the constituencies necessary, if you do not get the most voters can be parties get, they are David Cameron (Conservative Party) entered the coalition with Nick Clegg (Liberal) 2010, as to enter the coalition with another party. This is referred to as a "post past first". It is, for example, does not represent the way it should be they political parties, however, some of the people, in the last election, SNP UKIP got a slight 5%, 13% were more, with, this I do not like the system. However, SNP is, with 56 seats in the House of Representatives, UKIP got one! Amount of a particular political party of the people who want the House of seats means that which is directly proportional to its percentage of the vote, you can change the system to what is referred to as a "proportional representation".
SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE - In England, the Church of England is the officially established institutions. However, whether it should be? Secular, we believe that should not have a national religion.
GAY MARRIAGE - Same-sex marriage in 2014 to vote on the vote of the same-sex marriage to the moon Ireland, England, Scotland, legalized 222,015 years Northern Ireland is currently in Wales, has its own laws, to handle same-sex marriage from another country, such as citizen partnership does not intend to introduce.
DONALD TRUMP - In the UK, most of us, do not like Donald Trump! Some people even go as far as you want to ban him from the United Kingdom! Petition to ban him from the UK, have until 581,877 signatures this. Some people, agree to the hatred for this Donald Trump preach, we preach Islamic extremists is the hatred, when he wants to, by prohibiting him for his ideas, here, however, prohibited the Muslims for their various ideas that other people were not able to come would have been bad in the same way as playing cards.
Because my English is stupid, I'm sorry! I hope you have learned something! I love you!
