Give Her The Day Off!

.
Until it was pointed out by Nick Clegg, I hadn’t realised that there was a State Opening of Parliament occurring on Wednesday when her Majesty will have to read out the Government’s latest plans for the forthcoming year.

Only, as Mr Clegg rightly points out, there won’t be a forthcoming year for this government as there will have to be a General Election within that period. He suggests that the Queen’s Speech should be cancelled and replaced with a statement about the reforms about to be implemented to ‘clean up politics’.

I think they should give the Queen the day off. And we would be saved what will essentially be a party political broadcast.
