Members of the House of Commons in the UK are elected to represent local districts, just like the representatives of other democratic countries like the USA. The Prime Minister and the government are chosen from the party that has a majority of the seats in the House of Commons.

Members of the House of Lords are appointed or indirectly elected.

Ireland is a democracy, so elections are held. There are different methods, depending on the specific post that someone is trying to get elected for. Some are simple majority elections, but many are by proportional representation.

The Prime Minister is the head of government. He or she is the leader of the political party which gains the greatest number of votes in a general election or can control the greatest number of seats in the House of Commons.

Each party has their own methods for choosing their leader which they can change as the party sees fit.

Australian leaders are selected by election. It is compulsory for all Australian citizens 18 years and over to vote in local, state and Federal elections whenever they are held. Citizens go to a polling booth of their choice and vote by secret ballot. Federally, the party holding the majority of seats in the House of Representatives is invited by the Governor-General to form a government. The combined members of that party in the House and the Senate elect one of their number to be Prime Minister, who then recommends to the Governor General those to be appointed to be Ministers. In the States, similarly the Governor invites the party with the numbers to form a government, and the Premier is similarly elected and recommends ministerial appointments to the Governor.
