Queen's Speech
5 Answers
it has been claimed that following last week's less than satisfactory poll results for the conservatives, the queen's speech has been hastily rewritten to be more "popularist" - whatever that means (although downing street deny this).
so, what do AB-ers expect to see lined up for the next legislative session, and do you expect that any of it will help get the population back behind the government?

This is the only link I can find that makes any suggestion of the claims so take it how you will, but if it is to be believed it looks as if the matter of 'Gay marriages' will be put on the back-burner.

The Queen's Speech will be billed as a timetable for growth. It won't be. They will announce an extension of the road building programme (encouraging more cars while at the same time telling us to cut emmissions), but they will do nothing to encourage more house building
Yesterday Osborne apologised for the bad presentation of the Budget. He did not apologise FOR the content of budget, just the presentation of it.
Though backbench Conservative MPs are worried they look set to lose their seats at the next election, blaming LibDems for derailing Conservative policies, they still do not seem to have grasped they are in a Coalition. The LibDems need their pet projects like Gay Marriage otherwise they will feel they may be better off out of a deal with the Conservatives..

Gromit, your point about the Tories failure to have "grasped they are in a coalition" is one I made in the thread immediately below this one, so obviously I agree with you.
Tory MPs must be pretty dim to blame the LibDems for being there and holding back the wonderful policies THEY would pursue, given the fact that they would be in no position to pursue anything - except perhaps foxes! - if the LibDems WEREN'T right there with them!
(My guess is that there will be no mention of foxes in the Queen's Speech.)
