  • BBC Guide to Parliament (Updated to 2021)
    BBC Guide to Parliament (Updated to 2021) There has been a parliament at Westminster since the 13th Century. Today it remains the centre of British government, boasting a colourful history and frequently adding new chapters. Parliament is the place where politicians meet to decide laws and make decisions on running the UK, although some issues in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are now dealt with by their respective parliaments and assemblies. Decisions on setting taxes to fund the government's policies are also FACT: MPs and made in Parliament. Lords do not refer to The business of Parliament takes place in two "houses": the elected each other's debating chambers House of Commons and the House of Lords, whose members are by name - instead mostly appointed. they refer to "the Their work is similar: making laws (legislation), checking the work of other place”. the government (scrutiny), and debating current issues. Generally, the decisions made in one house have to be approved by the other, but the Commons is by far the more powerful of the two chambers. No longer 646; now 650 Now between 700 - 800 Term Definition Minister Backbencher Whip Crossbencher Law Lord Opposition Shadow Government The government is normally formed by the leader of the party that wins the most seats in the general election. If the party wins an overall majority (more than half – i.e. at least 326) of the seats, the government will comprise some of the elected members belonging to that party - and possibly some of its members in the House of Lords. If the leading party does not have an overall majority, its leader may have to approach other parties to enable it to form a minority government (Recent example: in 2017 Theresa May’s minority government was supported for 2 years by the DUP (Democratic Unionist Party) from N.Ireland) or form a coalition and allow the coalition partners to have representation in the government( e.g.

  • Editorial Processes – How Bbc News Works
    EDITORIAL PROCESSES – HOW BBC NEWS WORKS This document sets out the way that editorial decisions are taken in BBC News. At one level, the process is straightforward; the final decision about what to broadcast is taken by the editor of each area of output – whether it be a programme, a strand on a continuous news network or an online section. As the Neil Review of BBC Journalism reaffirmed in 2004, the editors are the “gatekeepers”. But BBC editors take the decisions they do in the context of the core BBC values that should drive all our journalism – truth and accuracy; serving the public interest; impartiality and diversity of opinion; independence; and accountability. They operate within an overarching framework of direction, guidance, policy and strategy which is set by senior management and approved and monitored by the BBC Trust (and formerly the Governors). Decision-making is a process of delegated editorial responsibility, with considerable checks and balances. Helen Boaden Director, BBC News (22nd January, 2007) The scale of BBC News The sheer scale of BBC News has a decisive impact on the way we are organized. It is like a big newspaper conglomerate with numerous titles – but publishing in different formats (radio, television and online) and catering for a range of different audiences. As of September 2006, BBC News employed just under 3,500 journalists producing 619 hours of news and weather per week on domestic radio and television, and 400 new stories a day on the website, with thousands of updates. BBC News also produces programming for BBC World and BBC World Service Radio which is commissioned by the Global Division.
