Member of Parliament.

England is split into about 650(?) regions, each of which votes for an MP to
give them political representation. Each MP can attend discussions in the
House of Parliament, create motions and vote on motions that are put
forward. Most MP are members of a political party. The party with the
majority of elected MPs forms the government by assigning ministers to
some of that party's members. Each minister in the government covering
a department*. The most senior ministers are part of the Cabinet which is
responsible for government policy. The Prime Minister is an MP voted for
by members of the leading political party to be the country's and party's
executive leader.

*i.e. Schools, Health, Treasury, Scotland, etc.

MPs are as trust worthy as the voters are good judges of people.
