When Queen Elizabeth II attended the State Opening of Parliament in Westminster on Tuesday, Nuneaton MP Marcus Jones was held hostage at Buckingham Palace until she returned, as per an age-old custom in Britain.
Whenever the Queen visits the Palace of Westminister where MPs and Lords meet to form and change the laws of the land, a British Member of Parliament is held hostage awaiting her safe return. This archaic tradition seems unnecessary in the 21st century, but it started as a genuine concern for the safety of the monarch.

One of the Queen’s most important ceremonial functions is to formally open Parliament, which traditionally involves her wearing the glittering Imperial State Crown and ceremonial robes and traveling by coach to make a speech. However, this year the ceremony was scaled back due to the coronavirus pandemic, and today the Queen made the journey to the Palace of Westminster by car and wore a lilac day dress and hat.
