From the land of haribos.

Will you also be listening to his speech? It will be around 11.30am and it will be the first speech from kings charles 111.

I heard that he will be talking about many things, such as smoking ban and oil and gas licencing, what else do you think that he will talk about?

I haven’t heard it and it’s pretty irrelevant, but although the monarch goes through the charade of “I instruct my Government to…” and reads out whatever is put in front of them, I always had the fantasy of Charles being the one to say: “I instruct…. oh no I don’t, what is this bullshit!”

Too little too late for the Tories. The only thing that wills save them now is a Labour implosion (by no means an unlikely scenario).

Heard a smidgen on the news. Didn't he state "my govt will..."? Wasn't paying too much attention accept wanting the crown to fall off as it's so heavy, apparently .

It seems that the government has been happy to concede that their lack of understanding of the public and what we want, is real. And they're not really going to bother to try to give us the country that we want.

Zombie government. It will be great to get a general election, so that people can vote for what they want

So, what do you think that the public want a government to do?

Charlie sounded as bored as his speech was. Deadpan from word one. Are We-the-People keeping you up, Charlie? Got other things to do?

There was no Dunkirk Spirit in that speech !!

Labour members are in the process of implosion once again over Starmer's lead on a ceasefire. What are we up to 12 or 13 Labour Councillors resigned so far? And today Shadow minister Imran Hussain has quit Labour's frontbench in protest at Sir Keir Starmer's position on the Israel-Hamas war.

It's Starmer who needs the Speech right now. Or maybe a tenable position. Followed by a Speech.

Bend over backwards, print money, tell them everything is going to be okay, tuck them into bed, and turn a blind eye.

On the smidgen I saw, what you saw as boredom, I interpreted as "do I really need to read this crap..." aka disbelief.

Judging by their voting record they want the government to transfer as much power and wealth from those at the bottom, to those at the top. And to prioritise the needs of big corporations over the needs of British people. Oh and for the government to line their own pockets during the various crises.

it could have been a chance to cut down on some of the expense pomp & circumstance of the state opening of parliament, the only thing missing was Guy Falkes

It is unfortunate the King’s Speech (and presumably the many Queen’s speeches that came before it) had to be written as a party political speech.

Does a speech that outlined forthcoming business have to mention

“World leading”, “leading the world” “opportunities of Brexit” etc etc

I get it that the politicians might want to spin their words and colour their language, but asking the monarch to speak in this way strikes me as a bit distasteful.

And narcissistic (the govt/the pm).

The monarchy never ever says anything they don't support themselves. Nobody gets the monarchy to speak on their behalf.

Maybe when a monarch actually ruled.
