[London 28th Reuters]-British Prime Minister Johnson requested that the Queen's speech be officially declared on October 14th to officially declare the opening of Congress. Just a few weeks before the European Union (EU) departure date, a few weeks ago, criticism struck that it was aimed to contain movements against the withdrawal.

The Prime Minister dismissed the criticism as a “perfect mistake” and argued that the Queen's speech could show the plan of domestic politics and that he had enough time to discuss the withdrawal issue in Congress.

◎ What is the Queen's speech?

The administration will be used to show plans for the next year. Usually, major priorities and bills that the government aims to pass are announced.

Queen Elizabeth reads a speech drafted by the government. The Queen's speech is a highlight of the Congress opening ceremony and declares the start of a new session.

◎ Is Johnson's movement unusual?

The face-up is not unusual.

The Queen's speech is usually held annually. Johnson, who just took office in July as the replacement for former Prime Minister May, should have his own priority bill.

Due to the need to process a large number of bills before leaving the EU, the current session has already lasted for more than two years, and the Queen's speech was last implemented in 2017. The government said it had to show a new plan.

Congress usually closes for a few days before the Queen's speech. The recent closing period is 5-20 days.

◎ Why are some people hesitant so far

The reason is timing.

The UK will need to make the most important strategic decision over the next few decades over the next few weeks: how to withdraw from the EU, and in some cases whether or not to leave.

By setting the Queen's speech on 14 October, the number of days of parliamentary deliberation will be reduced by several more days.

While Johnson wants a smooth exit based on an agreement with the EU, he shows a willingness to leave without an agreement.

In parliament, the majority of the opposition to “no withdrawal without agreement” is slightly higher. The forces want to use parliamentary procedures to prevent unapproved withdrawals and to urge Mr. Johnson to postpone the EU.

What happens next

Parliament will resume on September 3 after summer vacation and will deliberate for at least a week.

The government announced that it would begin the closing procedure on September 9. The final deliberation before the Queen's speech is expected to be shortly after, but has not yet been confirmed.

In other words, there is only a few days for the opposition "disengagement without agreement" to execute the plan.

The Queen makes a speech on 14 October and officially declares the resumption of parliament. Thereafter, the contents of the speech are deliberated for several days, and voting is carried out on both days 21 and 22.

Whether or not you can win this vote is a critical test of Johnson's ability to govern.

However, even if Johnson loses and the cabinet disapproval resolution is passed, he can delay his resignation and general election until October 31st.

During the Queen's speech and voting, Mr. Johnson will visit Brussels to negotiate the last minute to agree on new terms for leaving the EU. The EU summit is scheduled for October 17th and 18th.
