What is Politics & What Does a Politician Do?
Politics is a process where rival groups assert competitive claims to mobilise support for their agendas. It involves the strategic distribution of resources, reflecting a power struggle often driven by both material interests and identity factors like culture and values, transcending traditional left-right divides. Members of Parliament (MPs), otherwise known as politicians, are elected representatives who serve as constituency representatives in the House of Commons. Their role as politicians involves voicing the concerns and interests of their constituents, ensuring that these are addressed in national legislative discussions and decisions.
