Parliamentary Supremacy
Parliamentary supremacy refers to parliament being the supreme law-making body; it consists of the monarch, the House of Lords and the House of Commons. Supremacy can be described as ‘the supremacy of the political party holding most common seats’.
The members that make up the parliament are all elected and have the power to determine policy and therefore have political sovereignty; this refers to parliament being the highest source of English Law. Due to the members of parliament being elected they have more power than the House of Lords, which is why the House of Lords can only delay an act from being passed to become a law rather than completely reject it.
