- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- (6 Jul 1970) A new session of Parliament is opened by Her Majesty the Queen and the rich ceremonial which is part of Britain's National Heritage. ® Accompanied for the first time at the State Opening by the Prince of Wales and Princess Anne, the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh drive to the Palace of Westminster in the Irish State Coach. ® A fanfare announces Her Majesty's entrance into the Royal Gallery and the solemn procession to the Throne begins. In the Chamber of the House of Lords, the sumptuous setting in red and gold is enhanced by the robes of the waiting Peers, Judges, Bishops and Diplomats. ® At Her Majesty's Command, the Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod goes to summon the Faithful Commons. His way is barred and he knocks three times to gain entry to the Lower House. Then the Speaker, The Prime Minister, the Leader of the Opposition and the Members of the Commons file into the House of Lords to hear the Queen read her "Gracious Speech from the Throne".

Correction; Her Majesty the Queen.
4:50 its Margaret Thatcher!
She was a minister in Edward Heath's cabinet from 1970 to 1974. Secretary of State for Education and Science.
@@johnking5174 and as such she abolished school milk, giving her her nickname the Milk Snatcher
And
Charles is probably saying to himself "Someday I'll be doing what Mummy is doing"
This is 1970.
Still waiting................
Hahaha
Now he can do this in next year's state parliament opening!
This didn’t age well
Feel better about that now? 🤔
God Save The Queen. Long Live The Queen.
God save the king
Thanks.
Wow, very dignity, unlike the chaotic and unrespectful House of Commons in recent years.
Dignified
The Commons could be just as rowdy back then as it is now. You just didn't get to see it on TV or hear the audio on radio. Hugh Gaitskill used to get shouted down something rotten during his time as Labour leader in the late 50s and early 60s.
I loved how Princess Margaret nodded to everyone to sit down LMAO
The Movietone News music is hilarious, especially at the very end, when the Queen has just finished speaking.
2:39 Ted Heath's father? He really looked like the late PM!
The Queen should be styled as Her Majesty.
Weiyou Zeng she is style as such : Her Majesty Elizabeth ii by the Grace of God Queen of United Kingdom and Notjern Ireland, Defender of the Faith and Head of the Common wealth and territories
HPPAV2003 No. HRH is His/Her Royal Highness. This is only used by princess and princesses. The monarch is ALWAYS styled HM, His/Her Majesty, NEVER HRH.
@@LordDim1 Correct: The Queen (or King and Queen-Consort) are addressed as "Majesty". Other royal members are "His/Her Royal Highness.".
First time Duke got a throne to sit on!
Interesting comments!
Back when the Duke of Edinburgh was a member of the House of Peers!
Is he no longer a member
@whatsay: No, the reforms in 1999 (I think that’s the year) removed the right for royals to sit in the House of Lords, aside from on the throne.
Young Margaret thatcher at 4:50
4:48 Margaret Thatcher
A black peer in 1970 is absolutely amazing learning he was supposed to be enabled years before too
3:50 - It is refreshing to see this part of the ceremony, without the pathetic and infantile interjection given by the beast of Bolsover Dennis Skinner at every state opening since the late 1980s.
This was actually his first year as an MP. But I'm sure he didn't yet have the political capital to make a snarky remark just two weeks after being elected.
John King Skinner was/is a republican. You may not agree with his views or with his conduct, but he had every right to express them, on his behalf and on behalf of all in the electorate that would agree. (I'm not one of them, I hasten to add.) Sometimes his remarks were silly; at other times, they were astute. Sometimes they actually helped to break the ice and get MPs of all sides into a more joyful mood - and surely the opening of the mother of all Parliaments ought to be a joyous occasion.
@@MS-19 Dennis Skinner was fantastic as he was the best advert for retaining the monarchy. 😂
It's actually Her Majesty The Queen
This occurred on Thursday 2nd July 1970, due to the general election being held on Thursday 18th June 1970, which saw the Conservative party win with a decent majority, great surprise. So a state opening had to be held a few weeks after the election, and no November 1970 state opening was held, as it was not needed.
Why didn't Black Rod nod to both sides of the House of Commons?
That was a modern change made in 1990s.
Poor old Iain Macleod only lived for another week or 2
Her Majesty The Queen, not HRH
whose stand behind Princess Anne,who are they?
They are the Queen's ladies-in-waiting
The lady tempest and Ruth Lady Fermoy
Alice in Wonderland...
Funny and extravagant..:)))
"HRH"??????
It’s not HRH.... it’s HM.... Her Majesty ....
HRH is for Princes and Princesses
HSH is for Royals with the title of Grand Duke
Very funny
Have some respect. Do you know how much this family as given to the world. The English language was preserved because of this family amongst many other things. And England has given many countries across the world government styles law education system rail road network postal services and much more . It seems funny because it's an ancient custom in today's world however its awesome that this family as kept it together for 1500 years and still relevant in their own nation today no other monarchy in the world as this longevity and still hold this level of importance to it's own people and to the commonwealth. The British royal family had to fight off invaders for 1500 years in order to retain the english language and British customs that many countries use and enjoy today .
