A Shadow Cabinet is a group of senior members from the opposition party in a parliamentary system, such as the one in the United Kingdom. They are responsible for scrutinizing the work of the government and offering alternative policies. Each member typically corresponds to a specific government minister, allowing them to challenge decisions and hold the government accountable. The purpose of the Shadow Cabinet is to provide a clear alternative to the ruling party's policies and to prepare for potential future governance. This structure helps voters understand the opposition's stance on various issues and promotes a healthy democratic debate within the parliament.
