Le foto del discorso del discorso del Trono di Elisabetta

Il re (o la regina) fanno il discorso del Trono, così si chiama, ad ogni apertura di sessione del Parlamento dal XIV° secolo. E poco è cambiato, se non che il ruolo del sovrano britannico è cambiato non poco nel frattempo. Durante il discorso è considerato sconveniente mostrare segni di approvazione o disapprovazione. Niente applausi, siamo inglesi! Ecco le immagini dell’arrivo di Elisabetta II, la più longeva regnante britannica di sempre, a Westminster per il discorso del 2016.
