Good morning Mumsnetters,
Newsnight's Michael Crick is coming to visit and wants to know about what we all think of the government's plans as to be revealed (but of course already heavily trailed) in the Queen's Speech Today.

Here's a helpful summary from the BBC.

So what are your thoughts please?

Felt a bit of sick in my mouth when I saw Mandy in his shiney robes gurning at the Queen & Prince Phillip.

NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I love Mandy

I wish we could decide who gets to be PM by having a Strictly competition
Week by week the nation votes to keep who we like
Last man standing is PM
revenue raised can be spent on something decent like funding the 4 nappy rule.

Mandy would win though

I wonder whether Mandy is so puffed up with his own importance that he doesn't realise most people think he's an oily creep. Or maybe he does, and couldn't care less because he's got money and power?

I know. You know what? I left it out deliberately because I can't work out whether the italics work with an apostrophe. Sad, huh.
