Brainstorm what we vote for – ie elections, Big Brother etc….maybe include why we vote (history of) and how we vote in different ways (text, in person, postal etc) Then move onto gathering their opinions with the next set of slides and the voting pods. Discuss each result after the vote.

The session we have done today is similar to the First reading of a bill (either in the House of Lords or the House of Commons –technically it is most similar to a 10 minute rule bill that backbenchers use, though the students do not need to know this!) If the bill is successful at the first reading, it is passed to the 2 nd reading where a debate takes place on the principles of the bill (which is what we are going to do in Session 3). They then vote on it. At committee stage a Public Bill committee (in the House of Commons, or around 30-40 MPs, proportionally made up to represent the political make up in the House) or a Committee of the Whol House in the House of Lords (which can involve all Lords) then looks at the bill in detail, going through line by line and making amendments. They then report on this (the report stage) to the rest of the House (during this other members can make suggested amendments). It then goes to the 3 rd reading where it is voted on again (and in the Lords further changes can be made) If the bill started in the House of Commons and passes these stages it then passes to the House of Lords where goes through all these stages again.
