The structure of the United Kingdom's Parliament is very unique.

Explanation:

Britain is a bicameral parliament which is made up of two "Houses". There is the Independent king or queen, also known as "the crown", above these two houses.

The two houses are: The "House of Lords", and the "House of Commons", which is the primary chamber. Both these houses meet in the "Palace of Westminster". There is a Lord Speaker (Norman, Lord Fowler is the current Lord Speaker since 2016). At present the Prime Minister is Boris Johnson, Conservative since July 2019. In United Kingdom, the individuals who are elected to work in "House of Commons" are the Members of Parliament (MPs).
