Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall arrive at the Palace of Westminster to accompany the Queen at the state opening of Parliament It is the Queen's first major public event since the death of the Duke of Edinburgh Follow live: QueensSpeech

Copyright: Jessica Taylor/ UK ParliamentThere will be less pomp and pageantry then usual with the Queen arriving by car rather than a horse drawn carriage and wearing a day dress and hat rather than a robe.

The procession from Buckingham Palace will be much more low key, with no military parade and no band or Guard of Honour outside the Palace of Westminster. Things will be pared back inside too. The Commons and Lords chambers are normally packed but only 74 people will be allowed in the main Lords chamber.Everyone in attendance will have had to test negative for Covid beforehand and they will all be wearing a face covering.

The magic hat.

Utterly ridiculous! Anyone mind if Scotland gets off its knees and wholly distances itself from this arcane shite?

I’m looking forward to a Republic of Scotland... ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Vive la République !

The Simpsons did this as well.

Absolute nonsense 😡😡

Good feckin lord, how is this allowed?

Fucking glad I missed this shite earlier on. A car with a golden hat in it.

Food banks!!!!!

So many metal barriers up.....so little need for them...

abolishthemonarchy

Normal island

Why is a hat being driven about like this? Have a look at yourself, England...

I mean that is just ridiculous, got foodbanks but can waste money on this shite

How many foodbanks are there in the 4 countries🤔 Millions starve while the corrupt system chauffeured a jewel encrusted crown to a multimillionaire ( paid for by taxpayers money) to deliver a message from one of the most corrupt governments ever. Wakeup ExcludedUK

Well those twats can’t fine any other way to make them self as joke

Sell the crown. Use the money to house the homeless.

Would have been fun if instead of the crown - one of Daft Punk’s helmets!

BBC even gets the name wrong 🤣

Foodbanks have increased exponentially, children are starving Conservatives giving PPE contracts to their maes with this ToryCorruption and we have to put up with this bollocks. Abolishthemonarcy TorySleaze

That would give you the boak 🤮

Correction BBC...The crown, with its 3000 STOLEN jewels and precious stones.

Thousands of people starving using food banks but there is plenty of money for this absolute bollocks ! Abolish the monarchy now! Disgrace

Headline should read ENGLISH NATION MAKES A FOOL OF ITSELF AGAIN

Pathetic.

Thats simply obscene

Oh ffs what abselute nonsense

The Crown 👑 is also available on .NetflixUK 😉🙃 QueensSpeech

Minimum attendance? They expect factories, schools, pubs etc to be full of people but all the MPs and Lords too scared to attend in person even the ones that have had both jabs! The Queen might aswell have done this by Zoom with a screen on the throne

This diamonds are not British, it would be noble if Britain would return them to the rightful owners, South Africa.

Why has the car got two rear view mirrors? To be sure ... to be sure 😜

Just do away with this nonsense.

The (CCP)Chinese Communist Party is not equal to the Chinese! They're devils! The Chinese people and the people of the world are victims. 共产党不等于中国人!它们是魔鬼!中国人民和世界人民都是受害者。

bbclaurak FYI, POLITICOEurope, no less, recommends ditching the boring Queen’s speech stuff for JohnnyMercerUK appearing at the CommonsDefence at 14:30 to discuss the job of Minister for Defence People and Veterans he quit in protest last month!

There must've been a meeting to arrange this a few days ago? Did the optics of this not occur to anyone?! People have lost their livelihoods, their homes, their lives & loved ones. Just get secret service to stick it in the boot of a car, and run it over.

What a lot of resources being used in this awful pandemic time (socially distanced in the car fleet)

bbclaurak What a load of old wank.

Best wishes from Fiji🏖🏝

Lickspittle Britain.

how good ! Makes me want to listen to the Sex Pistols' God saves the Queen .

Meanwhile in the real world.

Eat your heart out, Bono 😂

Doesn't feel very environmentally friendly or very apt for the times. Perhaps we should revise this silly nonsense.

Thank God, they found a way to safely 'retrieve' the Crown (and all that it symbolizes).

bbclaurak She’s not my Queen. Certainly until she hands the paedophile over to the FBI🤮

What an odd country we are.
