Stateside, I catch such things and #PMQ on #CSPAN , typically when Wednesday's session is re-run on Sundays, right about now, and I'm listening to King Charles' speech finding it quite odd in view of an explainer I heard a few days ago about #BlackRod and the bit he plays in the ceremony.

I mostly heard the King talk about "my government" and "my ministers" will definitely do this that and the other. All in all I'd say he made a big mockery of Black Rod. In his establishing that his government was to establish better relations with the EU, he made somewhat of a mockery of "Workable Brexit" Kier Starmer in the process. However, I don't think the King made the Tories any more attractive than they have been per their track record.
