Who keeps order in the house of lords?
In the House of Lords, the members themselvesare responsible for keeping order. Generally, the Leader of the House of Lords (a minister for Her Majesty's Government) plays a persuasive role in determining which side should speak next and to resolve other issues of order; however, the House of Lords, by resolution, has the formal authority to make all determinations with respect to its practices and the maintenance of order.It should be noted that there is a Lord Speaker in the House of Lords, but the role is a stark contrast to the Speaker of the House of Commons. In the chamber, the Lord Speaker puts questions to the House, announces results of votes, and provides procedural advice; the Lord Speaker does not decide on points of order, and has no authority to reprimand or call to order members of the House of Lords.

England does not have a parliament; England is a part of, but not the same as, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

The commons are the elected members of parliament from the 650 parliamentary constituencies in the United Kingdom and are called Members of Parliament or MP's. The Lords are mostly appointed as members and are Lords Spiritual, there because of their position in The Church of England and Lords Temporal - non-ecclesiastic members.

Is the speaker of the house a member of the majority party?
No. Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution states, "The House of Representatives shall choose their Speaker and other Officers." It doesn't state that they must be a member. However, all Speakers to date have been Members. When a newly elected Congress convenes for the first time, the major party nominates a candidate for Speaker. Members elect the Speaker by roll call vote. A Member usually votes for the candidate from his or her own party, but can vote for anyone, whether that person has been nominated or not. At the moment, the Republicans control the House of Representatives, and the Speaker of the House is Republican John Boehner of Ohio. He replaced Democrat Nancy Pelosi at the first session of the 112th Congress, in January 2011.
What do the British call their Congress?
They call it Parliament. The British Parliament has two Houses: The Commons, so named because it traditionally represented the 'common' citizens, and The Lords, the upper House that used to represent the nobility and the clergy. Nowadays the Commons represent the whole population. The powers of the Lords have by now been greatly reduced. It is sometimes called a 'reflection' chamber in which laws can be looked at dispassionately. The Lords may send a bill back to the Commons if they have grave objections to it, but if the Commons pass it again, it becomes law.
