当地时间10月14日，英国女王伊丽莎白二世在英国议会上议院发表“女王演讲”（Queen's Speech），阐述约翰逊政府未来政务重点以及该政府希望议会批准的法律。这是她的第65次“女王演讲”。
“女王演讲”的正式名字其实是“议会开幕大典（State Opening of Parliament）”，是英国每年于上议院议事厅举行的仪典。
作为议会的年度保留节目，主要目的是由女王宣读接下来一年内英国要通过并执行的法案，两院议员会聚首一堂，恭听君主致辞，标志着新一届国会会期的正式开始。
议会开幕大典有着非常繁复的庆祝过程，皇室、上议院、下议院以及很多贵族富豪都会参与其中。还能在威斯敏斯特沿街看到皇室前往议会大厦的壮观马车队。
不知是不是因为太重的缘故，女王这次仍然没有戴帝国皇冠，不过戴上了硬币同款乔治四世王冠（George IV diadem），看起来比较轻巧，也很正式，也能体现她对这次仪式的重视。
平时都放在伦敦塔里不见天日的帝国皇冠，世隔两年再把灰尘清扫“重见天日”，结果又只能静静地待在软垫上做个摆设……（此处心疼一秒钟）
“我的政府的首要任务，一直是确保英国在10月31日脱离欧盟。”演讲一开始，英国女王就开门见山，“政府打算在自由贸易和友好合作的基础上同欧洲联盟建立新的伙伴关系。”
声明还提到，将增加对医疗卫生行业的支出、推出更严格的移民法和增加对科研的投资。另外，气候保护也将纳入法律，改善英国基础设施。
其实女王这次的文稿都是首相和内阁大臣们写的，女王只负责念一遍，大约在他们心中女王的设定中有一项功能叫做“复读机”吧……
以下为英国女王2019年议会开幕致辞演讲的双语全文：
