Parliamentary election system:

1. In the general election, each constituency elects one member of parliament, and the method adopts the first-past-the-post system, that is, the candidate with the most votes can win. As for voters, each voter can only vote in one constituency, and must be a British resident with the status of a British citizen, a British overseas territory citizen, an Irish citizen and a China citizen.

2. Any British citizen living overseas has the right to vote in the first 15 years after moving overseas. Once elected, members of Congress will remain in office until the dissolution of Congress. If members of Congress die or are no longer eligible, their seats will be scarce.

3. The House of Commons also has the power to expel members, which only applies to cases where members seriously neglect their duties or participate in criminal activities. If a member's seat is vacant, a by-election will be held in the member's constituency to elect a new member. The by-election will be conducted in the same way as the general election.
