Britain's Prince Charles set out the government's legislative agenda on Tuesday in the House of Lords, reading a speech on behalf of Queen Elizabeth, who was forced to withdraw for the first time in almost 60 years due to mobility issues.

"Her Majesty's government's priority is to grow and strengthen the economy and help ease the cost of living for families," Charles told parliament.

Charles, who had attended the opening of parliament alongside his mother in recent years, wore an admiral's uniform to read aloud the agenda from a throne. While the queen would announce "My Government will," Prince Charles instead used "Her Majesty's government will..."

The Queen's Speech set out 38 bills, addressing issues of the COVID-19 backlog, the war in Ukraine and the United Kingdom’s departure from the European Union.
