Reply to: So will the Queens Speech pass today?

I think the Queen's pro-EU, she just thinks we should own it rather be a member of it.

In fairness her ancestors did!

Do the royalists like the idea of The Queen's Speech? If there's any merit to having a hereditary* head of state it's that she's independent of politics, and having her read out a speech written by the government is the complete opposite.


*Took me 6 goes to spell that.

Like an independent nuclear deterrent, if it all goes to tulip, Lizzy will wield a mace in one hand and an orb in the other, and sort the proles in the commons out.

Is that an Europe hat?

Hehe! It does look like an EU hat.

Or maybe the buttons are edible, because her maj has privately promised to eat her hat if she isn't doing another Queens speech within months!

No mention of Trump's state visit.

Damn!

We could have had a hippy protest.

They debate it first. The vote will come after the debate, next week some time.

Next Thursday I thought...

Caught the end of the speech but when is it voted on? Today or some other time?

EU is not Europe.

Is this an EU flag?

I liked the way Prince Charles' feet didn't touch the floor from that throne, like he was a little kid.

It would be fun to see Korbyn as PM. Then the real whining will start.

Hey Turkeys, heard about this Christmas thing?

Labour will on Sunday reveal plans to increase income tax for people earning more than £80,000 if Jeremy Corbyn becomes prime minister, as the party seeks to bolster its working-class support after hugely disappointing local election results.
