Prince Charles delivers Queen's Speech for the first time at opening of Parliament
Fox News
Queen Elizabeth II did not attend the opening of Parliament on Tuesday for the first time in nearly 60 years, as she struggles with difficulties in getting around.
The speech, which is written by the government, promised Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s administration would "grow and strengthen the economy and help ease the cost of living for families." But there were few immediate measures to relieve households struggling with soaring prices for domestic energy and food.
Johnson said in a written introduction that the coronavirus pandemic and Russia's war in Ukraine had created "huge disruptions to the global economy." But he warned that "no government can realistically shield everyone from the impact."
