like the queen 's speech itself, we l like the queen �*s speech itself, we assume the article is short boosted is all very well, but how are you going to achieve that? presumably, it would have been done by now. no one waits until elections before producing a plan for growth and the slashing of red tape. little in detail. analysis by the academic willjennings showed that at the local elections, there is a link between the areas labour gained and warehouse prices increased. this is the kind of thing the conservatives will be looking at and thinking how they address that. a lot of noise and speeches about how they are going to both fix it, whether it is the housing crisis, the cost of living crisis, rising inflation or any other issues. how they actually address that remains to be seen. so far, the local elections and the polling suggests they have some way to go to convince the public that solutions they have are workable or even viable. let's look at our final paper, the sunday mirror. i'm going to give you each about 32nd. is that losing the fun? it each about 32nd. is that losing the

queens _ problem? there is a timing issue, to put it bluntly, queens speeches - put it bluntly, queens speeches about parliamentary bills than household bills. that�*slking about those measures to up the performance of underperforming regions, whether it is changing the way transporter structures, whether it is having an infrastructure bank, data and financial services and trade deals. we are talking about medium turn, long term, used to have an impact on productivity, wages and growth. the energy bill challenge is already happening, it is immediate and we are seeing it in the direct debits paid monthly by millions of households. the message we got from the government is they are going to wait until they know how much these energy bills are going to go up in the autumn before they can act on that. then more subtly, don�*t imagine this is the same sort of pain relief in tens of billions we got during the pandemic, that we can repeat that for the energy crisis. so you have a clean speech that is about long—term growth and that has been proven elusive for many governments for many years. thank ou ve governments for many years. thank you very much. _ go

the uk government sets out its agenda in the queen�*s speech as parliament opens later today the usedat auction.

we know sir keir will be in the comments and they will be debating the content of the queen�*s speecheen's speech, what do we know about that? plenty of re . alia what do we know about that? plenty of regalia and _ what do we know about that? plenty of regalia and fancy _ what do we know about that? plenty of regalia and fancy dress _ what do we know about that? plenty of regalia and fancy dress and - of regalia and fancy dress and prince charles reading out on the government�*s behalf from several pieces of fine paper. there will be 38 bills, planned new laws from the government tomorrow. a chance to reset and a chance to focus on the domestic agenda from all of the focus on covid and the war in ukraine. in big picture terms, there will be a lot of focus on the cost of living crunch, also this desire to soak all level up, focus on part of the country that feel they have been ignored and also to try and make the most of what they see as the benefits of brexit. the general election will be two years are but ministers will be well aware they have to be shown to be delivering right now.

the dup leaderjeffrey donaldson says he will wait after i donaldson says he will wait after the queen�*s speech this point, if i can put it that way? they say they feel a lack of trust in the government in westminster. they feel squeezed by the results you are getting. do you understand that nervousness? we don't understand that nervousness? - don't have trust in a tory don�*t have trust in a tory government in westminster. but we are elected to the powell dill power—sharing in the north. we have all given a commitment we will work together to form a government and i think we�*ll need to get around the table. we do not have time. people who are struggling now to pay their household bills, to pay fuel costs, who wake up in the mornings with those real worries, what we were getting on the doors is they want us to get back around the table right away but we are ready to do that on monday morning. team sinn fein will be there with michelle o�*neill to start delivering four people. there are £331; million that we can be unlocking on monday. we need to be getting that money out of the door and into p

but it is charles who for the first time will read the queen�*s speech. he constitutional choreography of monarchy. the pomp and pageantry have been lessened in recent years to make the ceremony more comfortable for the queen. but the rigors of walking and making a speech today were deemed too much of a challenge by the queen�*s doctors. like state opening, remembrance sunday has always been a priority for the queen. but last year she missed that too, due to her back problems that still affect her. managing the queen�*s diary, dealing with last minute changes is now the norm for those around her. last week it was announced that she won�*t be attending this year�*s garden parties at buckingham palace — again, viewed as too big a physical challenge for her. it is now for her wider family to step up. buckingham palace has stressed that the queen is continuing with what they call a busy diary, virtually and on the phone. but when the prince of wales delivers the queen�*s speech today, he does so as a son supporting his mother and as a future king. daniela relp

the government 's argument about the queen's - future, if anything? the government l 's argument about the queen's speechrgument about the queen's speech yesterday is that is the place where you set out the legislation you are going to put to parliament in the next year or two, not the place where you would announce financial help for people struggling with the cost of living. last night there was a meeting of this new cabinet committee chaired by the prime minister in at number 10 where ministers started discussing ideas for helping people further. these are ideas which are about tweaking regulations in a way that saves people money, rather than changing government policy on and spending in any kind of big way. —— on taxing and spending. it follows a to do afternoon when the prime minister in imprecise borisjohnson language set there would be more support in the coming days, so we went to the treasury and asked them about it and they said there was no announcement coming which prompted some speculation that may be the prime minister was saying one thing and the chance of a thought something else. that w

on rare occasions, the queen has very subtly aired her views, like this speech where mr callaghan�*s ngdom of great britain and northern ireland. good evening, your majesty. you've had a very long day... when margaret thatcher became britain's first female prime minister, there were reports that the queen privately disapproved of the government's social agenda. but the iron lady played down suggestions of a serious rift. even if she did say it, all right, she may have felt something, but there was never any difficulty in saying anything to me. any difficulty at all. every year, there's a royal invitation to balmoral — matters of state discussed over a cup of tea. in the years that i came - to know her as prime minister, prime ministers had private i meetings with the queen each week, she invariably looks forward. - tony blair certainly appreciated the queen's advice after his landslide victory for labour. even though i was the politician and she was the monarch, ifound her not just useful, but sometimes deeply insightful. it's very good to welcome you here... when you have to explain

ttj: guardian, as you would expect, is highly critical of what wasn't in the queen's speech, and they follow six years starmer�*sreft of ideas and purpose, no guiding principle, and of course commits the absence of anything to deal with the current cost—of—living crisis across the board, there is concern about some of the tory papers, the tory supporting papers, then, of course, later in the day, when the debate started in the house of commons, the prime minister started to suggest, well, there may be something on this in the days to come, then you are bound to ask how many days, i think thatis bound to ask how many days, i think that is at the heart of all of this. it appears to those that government —— does the government fully realise even after leslie's local elections that this is that now crisis. find that this is that now crisis. and what do you — that this is that now crisis. and what do you make _ that this is that now crisis. and what do you make of _ that this is that now crisis. and what do you make of that? do you go along with the guardian there that the headline that the tories are bereft of ideas?

it�*s a. significant workload and tradition suggest not every bill that is necessarily set out in the queen speechthe imperial state crown and the other two great emblems of the sovereign's authority, the cap of maintenance and the sword of state. they will be taken in their own cars from the royal mews, from buckingham palace up to horse guards parade and down to the palace of westminster. why7 well, they will be on display and on display for the very simple reason that in years gone by, and certainly going back centuries, they would be seen and need to be seen as symbols of the king's power or the queen's power, so we have the reflection of that today and you will see that the crown, a little later, will be put on display in the house of lords along with the cap of maintenance and the sword of state, and then they will be taken in procession into the house of lords itself for the queen's speech, as it traditionally is, but delivered today as we know by the prince of wales. because today's circumstances are different, let'sjust because today's circumstances are different, let's just explore that

queen's speech had nothing to say about that. the labour benches sounded rather quiet throughout keir starmer�*s speed.out of the kinship is my problems. the response there was to the covid crisis, this vast amount of expenditure from a huge borrowing cannot be repeated to try and get the country out of the cost of living crisis and tighter focus his speech on the detail of the queen's speech and measures he says will provide long—term solutions. it says will provide long-term solutions.— solutions. it is quite a bid legislative _ solutions. it is quite a bid legislative schedule. - solutions. it is quite a bid i legislative schedule. we've solutions. it is quite a bid - legislative schedule. we've got solutions. it is quite a bid _ legislative schedule. we've got more than 30 pills. that is a lot of parliamentary activity and you might say, he's got a huge majority, he won that one slide, he can get this stuff to do. but won that one slide, he can get this stuff to do.— won that one slide, he can get this stufftodo.�* ., . , . stuff to do. but not necessarily. we saw on the — stuff to do. but not nece

that there would be something in the quaint�*s speech, a specific bill allowing ministers in westminster to override parts of the protocol. —— in the queen'sat vicki young was mentioning, there, the issues opened up by the direction of this election, if you like and the fact that sirjohn curtice was telling us earlier that sinn fein are looking to top the poll, what do you think the likely course of events is going to be in the next few weeks? that is to say, with the actual, practical logistics of trying to put an administration in place and to get agreement on that. how do you see it going? it is incredibly _ how do you see it going? it is incredibly difficult _ how do you see it going? it 3 incredibly difficult and actually, it was the conservative northern ireland secretary brandon lewis who really put the cat among the pigeons on wednesday night by saying as vicki young explained there that we were expecting this legislation that would allow some kind of overriding of the protocol. that now appears to have gone away. really unusual timing, quite extraordinary for a conservative minister to come on the airwaves the night before a count
