The Queen's Legislative Agenda



(From Teaching Comparative blog)
I know, you didn't think the British Queen had a legislative agenda. But she stood in front of both houses of Parliament and the TV cameras this week and announced her government's list of priorities, most of which will become law. Do you remember what's going on here?

For the queen to stand infront of thousands including cameras to announce a legislative plan on her governement shows her lack of support in office. She should have hired or someone in charge of the interviews and political situations. Obviously, she is informed and handles buisness when do but the simple fact that she has to go infront of the world and publicize herself the duties that have to take place, shows their lack of government/political skills.
