Queen's Speech
Today marks the State Opening of Parliament, with the Queen due to deliver a speech to begin the new session of Parliament and enable the Government to highlight its priorities for the coming months. Since the last Queen's Speech, lockdown measures have been gradually removed and Britain has seen the introduction of both Plan B and a 'Living with Covid' plan, the cost of living has soared as inflation hit a 30-year high, and Russia's invasion in Ukraine continues to threaten the stability of Europe.
