Here you’ll find the materials about elections in the UK, reading comprehension and crosswords, word search and tourist attractions.

This an example of the material connected with general elections in the UK:

In a general election, every area in the country votes for one member of the Parliament (MP) to represent them in the House of Commons. There are 650 geographical areas, called constituencies. To be eligible to vote in a general election you must be registered to vote and aged 18 or over.

Each eligible voter has one vote in their local constituency, and the candidate with the most votes becomes the MP for that area.

This voting system is called “first past the post”. Usually the political party with the most MPs that forms the government-though if there is no overall winner, a hung parliament may result. Two or more parties with a combined majority of MPs may form a coalition.

If a MP dies or resigns between elections, there is a by-election in their constituency.

And the text is supported by comprehension questions (multiple types)

1. What is a “hung parliament”?

2. How old do you have to be to vote in the UK election?

3. When do by-elections usually take place?

4. What type of voting system does the UK currently have
