And then, Chris, the other thing that sort of scrambles your mind about this is people might say, oh, this is full of stuff that the government's already announced.

But that's what the King's Speech is.

Because the government announces things and then they actually have to go through the process of putting them in law so they actually happen.

And I'm just thinking things like tweaking the terrorism legislation

so that you can be found guilty of just wanting to cause serious violence, even if you don't have a political cause for that, which is a really important change to the law of the land.

Right.

So that's our rapid fire roundup of the King's speech.

And that gives us a bit of a roadmap for what will be happening in Parliament in the next few months or years, maybe.

So let's go back to what was happening today.

So then there's lots of tradition around the King's speech in Parliament.

You get some backbenchers doing quite funny speeches.

And I listened to Naz Shah, the Labour backbencher.

She was actually very, very funny.

Then Kemi Badenoch was quite funny.

quite harsh on Keir Starmer and the chaos as she perceives it on the Labour front bench.

And then we heard from Keir Starmer.

And if you listen to this, you'd think this is a person without a care in the world.

So a little Arsenal joke there.

And then, Chris, you've got, yeah, somebody who is fighting for their political life, sounding quite chilled.

And all his colleagues, many of whom want him to leave the job, cheering him on when he makes a joke.
