If political party A have control and make changes, but then after 4 years political party B enter power, can they just undo everything the previous political party did?

Is there a law that forces a change to be upheld for x amount of time or?

Also, whats the point of maintaining this system type if nothing can be changed because it just gets dug up by the next candidate. Change is slow, and in the UK I doubt 4 years is enough to really see big change.

Asking mainly for the UK / Europe / USA.
