There are three main political parties in the United Kingdom: the Conservative party, the Labour party and the Liberal Democrat party. There are other minor parties, such as the Green Party, UKIP and BNP. Members of Parliament may also stand as independent members, which have no political allegiance. There are other region-specific political parties, such as the SNP, Sinn Féin, and Plaid Cymru.
Political parties have unified groups of people and helped them seek and achieve common goals. They help to offer voters choices. Just as people have a favorite sports team that they tend to favor, political parties give people something to identify with. Political parties tend to control who get what, where, when, and how much. Their major purpose for existence is to get people to elect their candidates. Political parties tend to attract people based on their performances and their political platforms. What the promise and what they accomplish while being in office largely determine which coalitions will affiliate with their party in the next elections. So even though elections between political parties can be heated they have served as a way for people to identify with government and best express their individual voice.
Minor parties take votes away from the candidates of other parties.
