Queen Elizabeth delivers her 65th Queen’s Speech, setting out her government’s legislative agenda, at today’s State Opening of Parliament.
Even though the speech’s provisions will likely be overshadowed by – or provide welcome respite from – the ongoing debate over next month’s EU referendum, there is set to be some interesting things, from prison reform to a British Bill of Rights. It could also mark the first time the monarch has publicly said the words “driverless cars.”
