A. | UK |
B. | USA |
C. | France |
D. | India |
Answer» A. UK | |
Explanation: The British Speaker is elected at the beginning of the Parliament by and from among the members of the House of Commons. If the Speaker of outgoing Parliament is still a member of the house and is willing to be re- elected, he can do so, usually, he is re-elected as many times as he wants. A change of party does not make any difference. He is elected unanimously by the house. So in Great Britain there goes a saying, "Once a speaker always a speaker." |
