In Britain, the Government control the press (news and media). Is it true? Prove your answer.
UK newspapers can generally be split into two distinct categories, the more conservative and political newspapers, usually referred to as the broadsheetsdue to their large size, and sometimes known collectively as "thequality press", and less serious newspapers, generally known astabloids, and collectively as "the popular press", which have tended to focus more on celebrity coverage and human interest stories rather than political reporting or overseas news. The tabloids in turn have been divided into the more sensationalist mass market titles, or "red tops", such asThe Sun and The Mirror, and the middle-market papers, The Daily Express and The Daily Mail. All the major UK newspapers currently have websites, some of which provide free access. The Times and The Sunday Times have a paywall requiring payment on a per-day or per-month basis for non-subscribers. The Financial Times business daily also has limited access for non-subscribers.

The Prime Minister is the head of the Commonwealth. Is it true? Prove your answer.
There are 32 countries with a prime minister as head of government in the Commonwealth. Sixteen are Commonwealth realms with Queen Elizabeth II as head of state, five are national (local) monarchies and 11 are republics. Prime ministers, who head governments, are in most cases elected by parliament and normally the leaders of the party or coalition with most seats in parliament. Exceptions include Brunei where the Sultan is prime minister, Swaziland where the prime minister is chosen by the King, and Cameroon where the selection is made by the president. In seven Commonwealth countries Guyana, Namibia, Kenya, Sri Lanka, Rwanda, Uganda and Tanzania the prime minister is not head of government. This brings the total number of prime ministers in the Commonwealth to 39.

64. The Queen represents the uk to the rest of the world. Is it true? Prove your answer.
The Queen is Head of State in the United Kingdom. As a constitutional monarch, Her Majesty does not 'rule' the country, but fulfils important ceremonial and formal roles with respect to Government. She is also Fount of Justice, Head of the Armed Forces and has important relationships with the established Churches of England and Scotland. For the rest of the world The Queen is a figurehead representing her country; in Britain for many people Queen Elizabeth II and her family are a symbol they can identify with. The British public is obsessed with the details of the royal family’s life, and when people feel that The Queen has problems with her children, they see her as a real person with the same worries and anxieties as themselves.

YES! It's true because A parliamentary system is a system of democratic governance of a state in which the executive branch derives its democratic legitimacy from, and is held accountable to, the legislature (parliament); the executive and legislative branches are thus interconnected. In a parliamentary system, the head of state is normally a different person from the head of government. This is in contrast to a presidential system in a democracy, where the head of state often is also the head of government, and most importantly, the executive branch does not derive its democratic legitimacy from the legislature.

the Leader of the Opposition is the politician who leads the official opposition in the United Kingdom. There is also a Leader of the Opposition in the House of Lords.

The Leader of the Opposition by convention leads the largest party not within the government: where one party wins outright this is the party leader of the second largest political party in the House of Commons. He or she is normally viewed as an alternative Prime Minister, and is a member of the Privy Council.
