The UK Government is the political system that governs the United Kingdom, consisting of three main branches: the Executive, the Legislature, and the Judiciary. The Executive is led by the Prime Minister, who is the head of government, and includes various ministers responsible for different departments. The Legislature is made up of two houses: the House of Commons and the House of Lords, which create and pass laws. The Judiciary interprets and applies the law, ensuring justice is served. The UK operates under a constitutional monarchy, where King Charles III serves as the ceremonial head of state, while the government is run by elected officials.
