1. Monarchies cannot have a president, so a Prime Minister is the head of the Government in these countries (U.K., Belgium, Commonwealth countries like Canada, Australia).\n\n2. Practically all republics have a prime-minister (as a head of a government) and most have a post of a president. However, some republics are "parliamentary republics" others are "presidential republics". Constitution determines prime-minister's and president's powers. For example, in the U.S., France and Russia the president is the head of state (all three have prime-ministers, even the U.S., where it is a Vice President), while in Israel and Austria a president is doing mostly protocol things.

You are trying to compare apples and oranges. The President and Prime Minister are roughly the same. Parliament and Congress are roughly equivelant.\n\nThe one thing I don't like about Parliamentary governments is the no confidence vote. If a Parliament doesn't like a Prime Minister's policies, they can hold a "no confidence" vote. If no confidence is voted, the Prime Minister's government folds and new elections must be held. Can make for some rough times. And it surely seems like the will of Parliament rather that the will of the people to me.

In democracy we have the powers - legislative, executive and judicial. In parliamentary systems the parlament - the legislative, is the main one. it pravails over the power of the president. People vote and a parlament is formed. Then depending on the terms set in the constitution, it forms a cabinet - the executive power. So the parlament makes the law, the cabinet executes them and the judicial systems makes sure everything goes according to the constitution and the law. The prasident has less prerogatives and just a formal figure. Still his prerogatives depend on the constitution.\nThis type of system is believed to be the best, because ypou have more control and power is devided.

In 1801 Thomas Jefferson compiled a manual of parliamentary practices. This handbook became the basis for the rules followed by the United States Congress. A later book by Luther Cushing of Massachusetts further spread the use of parliamentary procedure to voluntary organizations.

The primier is the prime minister.  Canada, Britain, Germany, France, and most countries have a PM (The US does not).  The authorities vary depending on the constitution.  They are normally the head of the majority party in parliament.

Democratic republic - a government where people elect representatives to the legislature and executive branches.  Some people can specialize in creating laws, others can approve or reject the laws (initiative, referendum).  This is the kind of government outlined in the US Constitution

Freedom !!!!!!!!!  In the form of Democracy.   The British GOVT is OK , Prime Minister Blair really runs things well.  The Queen along with the rest of the Monarchy, is a tribute to the past, the History and what the Country symbolizes, but on a day to day of GOVT activities, Mr. Prime Minister Blair runs with it.

Parliaments pass laws.  They are called legislation.  \n\nThen government regulators have to enforce the law.  They look at the law and work out the nitty-gritty details that need to be followed in order for the law to be followed.  \n\nSo for example, a state might might legislate that restaurant kitchens need to be in a hygenic state.  The health inspection department might then develop regulations that state, for example, restaurant kitchens need to x type exhaust fans or no broken tiles or no ajoining toilet.

its like the U.S. in the fact that its a democracy but the president (who is voted into office) is only Head of State (does partys/makes the country look good). The prime minister is the Head of Government and is the leader of the majority in the Legislature.

The government would like us to think that we have democracy in this country. But if you think it through, we don’t. At best, we have an elected dictatorship.  We vote a political party into office (usually in protest against the previous one) and that party’s leader becomes PM and he/she dictates to us for four years. If any of the cabinet disagrees too much, the PM just sacks them and appoints new puppets. That is totally undemocratic. When any cabinet motion goes to parliament, the party whips force the MPs to vote the way the PM and his cabinet wants them to vote (or they suffer the consequences). That again is totally undemocratic. We are told that we elect an MP to represent our constituency. But, if you think about it, that is not what happens. We actually elect the member of a certain political party to vote the way the PM (or the opposition leader) wants them to vote.   I believe we should get rid of party politics altogether and all MPs should be independent and have a free vote on all motions after consulting for the views of the constituency they represent. Those MPs should elect the cabinet (with the power to change that cabinet), and the cabinet should elect the PM (with the power to change the PM).
