The house of Commons is managed by MPs who make up the house of Commons Commission. At the head of the governance structure is the House of Commons Commission. The queen visits once a year to the house Lords for the opening of parliament but she is not allowed in the house of Commons. When making a law if the house of Lords and the house of Commons can’t agree the house of Commons gets the last decision. There are 650 Commons and 720 Lords, the Lords have red seats and the Commons have green seats.

Parliament Street
At the top of Parliament Street are: Big Ben, the London eye, Downing Street, Cenotaph and the houses of parliament.
The cenotaph is were you remember people that fought in World War 1 and World War 2. The cenotaph is not protected by guards it is protected by people who care. Cenotaph is Greek for ‘empty tomb’.
Changing of the Guard
Everyone wants to see the changing of the guards there are two horse guards and one guard in the middle that shouts “ MAKE WAY FOR THE GUARDS” just before the guards change with two more horse guards.
The London Underground
The tube trains are very noisy, speedy and as fast as lightning. When your on the underground tube train you will never get bored, the only thing that is boring is getting off. On your first try you might get butterflies in your tummy. On the train you sit down or hold on to a bar so you don’t fall, there are maps so you know where you are. There is a robot voice saying “Mind the gap, Mind the gap” you will never want to get off !!!
