IX. Read and translate the text: The Political Parties
Thanks to the British electoral system there are few political parties in Britain. The main ones are: the Conservative Party, the Labour Party and the Liberal/Social Democratic Alliance. In recent years the Green Party has gained a good number of votes but very few seats. Other smaller parties such as the Scottish National Party, Plaid Cymru (the Welsh National Party), the Protestant Northern Irish parties and Sinn Fein (the Catholic Northern Irish Party) also have some representation in the House of Commons. The Conservative Party mainly represents the middle and upper classes, but a sizeable percentage of skilled and unskilled workers have always voted Conservative. Its support comes mostly from business interests and it upholds the values of tradition, free enterprise and privatization. The Labour Party has traditionally gathered its support from the Trade Unions, the working class and some middle class backing. Its electoral strongholds have always been in south Wales, Scotland, and the Midlands and northern English industrial cities. Its policies are nationalization and the welfare state. The Liberal/ Social Democratic Alliance are dissatisfied with both the main parties and are critical of the election system.

...nationalization?
...privatization?
...changing the electoral system?
... taking care of the environment?
