The UK prime minister's plans to hold a Queen's Speech before a general election have been branded a 'sham' that will 'embarrass' the Queen.
Boris Johnson announced on Wednesday that he plans to suspend parliament again after his previous suspension was ruled illegal by the UK Supreme Court. He claims the new suspension is to allow a Queen's Speech, in which the monarch sets out the governments' legislative agenda for the coming parliamentary session. However, this is an abuse of the traditional role of the Queen's Speech, which always comes after a general election.
