According to the Constitution, which was adopted by national referendum on 12 December 1993 Russia is a federation and formally a presidential-parliamentary republic, wherein the President is the head of state and the Prime Minister is the head of government. The presidential-parliamentary system, or premier-presidential system, is a system of government in which a president and a prime minister are both active participants in the day-to-day administration of the state. It differs from a parliamentary republic in that it has a popularly elected head of state who is more than a purely ceremonial figure, and from the presidential system in that the cabinet, although named by the president, is responsible to the legislature, which may force the cabinet to resign.
The Russian Federation is fundamentally named a representative democracy.

The UK is a monarchy and has a parliamentary government. This means that there is no clear-cut separation of powers between the executive and legislative branches. The ministers of the executive branch are drawn from the legislative body (Parliament) and are accountable to that body. In such a system, the head of government is both chief executive and chief legislator.
Parliament, the law-making body (legislature) of the British people, consists of three elements: the Monarch, or Sovereign (King or Queen), and the Houses of Parliament constituted by an elected House of Commons and an appointed House of Lords. They meet in the Palace of Westminster together only on occasions of ceremonial significance, such as the state opening of Parliament, although the agreement of all three is necessary for legislation.

General Elections to the House of Commons are held after Parliament has been dissolved, either by the Queen or because the maximum term between elections – five years – has expired. The decision on when to hold a general election is made by the Prime Minister. Britain is divided into constituencies, each of which returns one MP to the House of Commons. The British electoral system is based on the relative majority method – sometimes called the “first past the post” principle – which means the candidate with more votes than any other is elected.
All British citizens together with citizens of other Commonwealth countries and citizens of the Irish Republic living in Britain may vote, provided they are 18 years or over and not legally barred from voting. People not entitled to vote include prisoners, members of the House of Lords, and those kept in hospital for mental disorders.
