Queen Elizabeth fails to deliver speech from the throne
London – Queen Elizabeth failed to deliver the Queen’s Speech on Tuesday afternoon. It is only the third time this has happened during her now seventy-year reign. The other times this was the result of pregnancies, now the 96-year-old monarch is not mobile enough, according to an official statement. By delivering the Speech from the Throne, Crown Prince Charles fulfills his most prominent constitutional task ever. He’s had to wait long enough, but is he ready to replace his mother?
