What is Parliament?

The representative of the electorate in the Parliament. In many countries the term is used exclusively for the members of the lower house. Because often a separate title for the upper house, such as the Senate and its members, is used as a senator, MPs form a parliamentary party with members of their political party. In everyday practice, the short form "MP" is often used in the media in place of the word MP.
