The expected answer is "U.S. Supreme Court Justices." However, that is not absolutely correct; the "...unless they...or are removed from office" bit must include elected officials (where there are no term limits, such as President). Losing an election/re-election would qualify as removing them from office, otherwise they may serve for life if re-elected that long.

How does the term of US Supreme Court justices differ from the other federal office holders?

Article III judges, including US Supreme Court justices, are appointed for a lifetime. Under Articles I and II, members of Congress and the President are elected for fixed terms, and must run for reelection every 2, 4 or 6 years, perpetually or until their term limits are exhausted or they are defeated. The President's Cabinet members and certain other political officeholders are appointed, but generally serve only during that President's administration and are replaced by the next incoming President. Supreme Court justices are also appointed, but serve until they resign, retire or die, unless they commit an impeachable offense and are impeached, convicted and removed from office.

Who can be candidates in a parlimentary election in England?

Anyone eligible to vote is also eligible to run for election, unless disqualified from holding public office by an election court for breach of electoral law within the past five years, in a United Kingdom parliamentary general election. Acceptance of a candidacy for election is however dependent on the payment of a £500 nomination fee, which is returned if the candidate wins more than 5% of the popular vote. It is worth noting that double mandates are not permitted in legislatures higher than the House of Commons. This means that Members of the European Parliament must agree to resign their seats in that body if they are elected to the House of Commons, though they can still run for election without having to resign. The same applies to Members of Parliament who are running to election to the European Parliament. Members of the House of Lords, however, must resign their seat in that chamber and register as a voter before nomination day if they are seeking election to the House of Commons.
