Abstract
In this article, the oversight and influence of the legislature on the executive branch in Iran and the United Kingdom have been comparatively studied. The issue of legislative oversight and influence over the executive branch in parliamentary systems is of great importance. Examining the influence and oversight of the legislature in the light of the separation of powers in systems such as the Islamic Republic of Iran with parliamentary systems such as the United Kingdom is of great importance in understanding the position of parliament and its influence and oversight of the executive. The present article is an analytical descriptive study using the library method. The results of the article indicate that in the British Parliamentary regime, the executive has several tools to influence and influence the legislature. These tools and means of influence are not all in the same power and intensity, and range from the possibility of ending the life of the legislature (dissolution of parliament) to a simple right of members of the executive to attend legislative sessions. In Britain, the executive branch has two pillars, with a head of state (king) and a head of government (prime minister or prime minister) holding all political responsibilities. The members of the government, the cabinet and the cabinet are elected from among the members of parliament, and the prime minister himself is one of the members of the House of Commons and the leader of the majority party
