The document is written by the government but read by the Queen at the State Opening of Parliament.
It is the main ceremonial event of the Parliamentary calendar — but this year’s will look different, with much of the usual formalities dispensed with and the Queen wearing “day dress” instead of her usual robes.
The speech will be delivered at 11.30am.
