The political party system in Britain is based upon Parliamentary Democracy, with a party elected to Government by democratic election every four or five years. Britain has 3 main political parties- the Conservatives, Labour, and the Liberal Democrats. In Wales and Scotland there are also Nationalist parties, respectively called Plaid Cymru and the Scottish National Party, who wish their nations to break away from the UK. Both of these have members of Parliament who have been elected to Westminster.

The Conservative Party
Although Thomas Paine is associated with the likes of Thomas Jefferson, he was not affiliated with any American political party for he self-imposed his banishment to Great Britain. Great Britain banished him from their country because of his views and settled in France. In his later years, Thomas Jefferson offered him to come home which he accepted. He died several years later.
