The British Parliament began as a voice of the people in a monarchical power structure. Today, the monarch has no power and the Parliament makes the decisions.
To limit the power of the king and give more power to the people. This is the 'text' book answer. In fact, it was clear that by setting up a place for the general population to decide on their own 'government' would actually consolidate the power of the king and the nobles what year did this occur.
In 1628 Parliament decided that the king should not have all the power. They made it so that The king would have to go to the Parliament and get their permission before taxing. This gave Parliament a shared power with the king after about 1640, which was after Charles I had decided to make it impossible for Parliament to meet therefore giving him all the power between 1629 to 1640.
The power and authority of the monarchy were replaced by the parliament.
