The Queen's Speech on Thursday

Anyone know what time this will be on please. Didn't get my weekend mag with tv guide this weekend.

Yes Gaunt47, that looks just ideal to me! Straight to the point, appropriate and HM can get home and crack on with her Christmas preparations! ?

Dennis Skinner will be missed

I am reading this on behalf of my Government. Some of it is true and will be delivered and other bits perhaps not. I still want to be Queen of Scotland and spend my summer holidays there. Just stop arguing and get on with it

It’s always 3pm. It’s not live, so don’t worry about her getting a cup of tea!

"Let me tell you a story. My Prime Minister wrote this one. Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin. Once upon a time, in a galaxy far away . . . ."

" . . . . and they all lived happily ever after"

Spot on I would say Gaunt, you could have a future helping the Queen write her speeches.

I’d love to think when HM was asked again she’d be like ‘Brenda from Bristol’!

‘What - ANOTHER ONE?’
?

Gaunt47 that gave me a laugh

Urmston, love Brenda from Bristol
"Not anotherrr one"

A bit of lighthearted fun on a rather gloomy Monday, thanks Gaunt and everyone

Thanks Gaunt47. I love it!

Elegran ?

Some are muddling the Christmas message with the official Queens Speech listing the government objectives for the new parliament

Let's have proportional representation next time so that people actually have a chance of their votes being meaningful. And fact-checking of all manifesto and election claims.

It’s usually about 11 am

I can't see any muddling Marjgran - all posts seem to relate to the State opening of Parliament on Thursday.

She's probably wondering why the heck Boris chose December, she has to get all dressed up in her posh frock, no warm coat, go out in the cold and wear that heavy crown.

"Not another one!"

Stop faffing about and earn your wages!

Spot on Gaunt47. I wish the Queen would say EXACTLY that.....

Message withdrawn at poster's request.

Callistemon, endlessstrife said it was always 3pm thinking it was that other queens speech. Marjgran was right

hear hear Jillybird.... and a lot more in similar vein to cut through all the un-thought-out spend spend spend nonsense of the last few weeks!

I’m gently startled that anyone takes any notice of what the queen says at any time.we never watched it at home without any great fuss just seemed ininformative platitudes. I didn’t realise we were such an anti monarchical family.
As for opening of parliament it’s her job. It’s a spectacle, utterly meaningless she reads a script read by the new government of which she had no say. She is in a gilded cage. Irrelevant.
You’d think at her age she have nothing to lose in speaking truth as she sees it, but no, she serves the status quo whatever it is as long as her family survives. Sacrifices all integrity. Dream on

Love it Mimismo

Maybe Charles could deliver it this time.

Do you mean her christmas day speech,Endlesstrife? Yes that's always 3pm.but i think op meant the parliament speech.isn't that a different one? Anyway,she won't dare say too much cause i think i read somewhere that government STILL has the power to have the reigning monarch put to death?(unless of course she gets it in for them first?)
