Yes, it is welcome back, just two months since welcome back, just two months since we last gathered in this very room inside the palace of westminster for the state opening of parliament. Back on the 14th october Boris Johnsons government with no parliamentary majority put forward, lets say, a rather thin programme. Today, the queen will present a legislative programme from the conservative government with a big majority in the house of commons following last weekss election.

This is Boris Johnsons second queens speech in the sake space of nine weeks. Boris johnson has been resident at n

For the fourth time in the space believe that the labour party is a of five years, the future of the United Kingdom is uncertain, remain party. The fact of the matter is that they are not going to and this time, with politics in deadlock and brexit unresolved, tolerate that. They believe that in the stakes are higher than ever.

And they think that the labour party have totally reneged on the result will Boris Johnson be back in number 10 . Of that. Thats what this is about. WillJeremy Corbyn beat him to it .

Case challenging Prime Minister borussia else in suspension of parliament and whether his advice to the queen to do so was justifiable. Critics claim the Prime Minister did this to avoid opposition to his brexit plan. The British Parliament is scheduled to return on october 14, roughly two weeks before the deadline for the u. K.
