In a presidential democracy, the leader is called a President, and he or she is elected by citizens to lead a branch of government separate from the legislative branch.
The House of Lords is the second chamber of the UK Parliament. It is independent from, and complements the work of, the elected House of Commons.
The business of Parliament takes place in two Houses: the House of Commons and the House of Lords. Their work is similar: making laws (legislation), checking the work of the government (scrutiny), and debating current issues.
After each general election, the Members of Parliament elect a Speaker from among any Member (not being a Minister or a Parliamentary Secretary) or any other suitable person to preside over the proceedings of the House.
Parliament serves three major functions in government.
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say
Government is formed by the political party that received the majority of votes in the last General Election.
It provides scrutiny and oversight of the government, examining and challenging the work of the government. It debates and passes legislation.
A general election is an opportunity for people in every part of the UK to choose their MP - the person who will represent their local area (constituency) in the House of Commons for up to five years.
the highest legislature, consisting of the sovereign, the House of Lords, and the House of Commons.
Countries with parliamentary systems may be constitutional monarchies, where a monarch is the head of state while the head of government is almost always a member of the legislature

A parliamentary democracy is a form of government where voters elect the parliament. The party with the most votes picks the leader of the government.
Parliamentary democracy originated in Britain and is still used there today.
A parliamentary democracy is a form of government where voters elect the parliament, which then forms the government.
The party with the most votes picks the leader of the government. Prime ministers are beholden both to the people and the parliament
A big disadvantage to this system is that the government can be unstable
Unlike a President, the prime minister or chancellor is elected by the majority party, and can be removed at any time if the majority party loses confidence in that person as leader.
One of the commonly attributed advantages to parliamentary systems is that it's faster and easier to pass legislation.
This would amount to the executive (as the majority party or coalition of parties in the legislature) possessing more votes in order to pass legislation.

Talk about how the Prime minster can be kicked out at any time

The legislature has the right to dismiss a Prime Minister at any time if they feel that he or she is not doing the job as well as expected.
Some countries with a parliamentary system are constitutional monarchies, which still have a king and queen. A few examples of these are the United Kingdom, Sweden, and Japan.
A parliamentary democracy is a system of government in which citizens elect representatives to a legislative parliament to make the necessary laws and decisions for the country. This parliament directly represents the people.
The Prime Minister starts off as a member of Parliament, and is then elected by others in Parliament.
Government ministers remain in office as long as they continue to have support and approval from a majority of the members of parliament.
Parliament continually reviews the work of government and debates national and international issues. In the UK, for example, the prime minister must publicly answer questions in the House of Commons on a weekly basis.
Voters rank all parliamentary candidates in order of their preference, rather than choosing one individual. The leader of the party that holds the majority of seats in parliament becomes chief executive.
