Online Highways Home > > Prime Minister In the British system of government, the leader of the party with a majority in Parliament is the Prime Minister. After an election, the monarch asks this person to "form a government." The word "government" has a different meaning than in the United States. It refers to a cabinet of ministers chosen from Parliament who enjoy the support of a majority in the House of Commons. The Prime Minister thus becomes both the head of the legislative branch and the chief executive of the national government. See more House of Commons. Other upcoming events include:
