Most Gracious Sovereign,

We, Your Majesty’s most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled, beg leave to offer our humble thanks to Your Majesty for the Gracious Speech which Your Majesty has addressed to both Houses of Parliament.

https://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201719/cmstords/1020/body.html#9(3)


15

transformative action which the environment and climate emergency demand; calls on your Government to enact a Green New Deal to restructure and decarbonise the economy and restore nature, based on alternative measures of economic success to GDP, and including public investment of 5 per cent of GDP on well-paid jobs and new industries country-wide; urges your Government to establish a Committee on Sustainability to advise on restoring and protecting ecosystems; and further urges your Government to prioritise climate justice, the reversal of social and economic inequality and the revitalisation of democracy, with legislation to end public spending on fossil fuel projects overseas, to contribute a fair share to international climate finance for mitigation and adaptation alongside loss and damage, and to deliver a universal basic income, proportional voting, votes at 16, citizens assemblies, and an end to privatising public services including the NHS and a reversal of cuts inflicted on local government since 2010.’.

At end add ‘but particularly regrets the Government’s intention to use the Immigration Bill to end freedom of movement within Europe; believes that freedom of movement has brought immeasurable social, cultural and economic benefits to the people of Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland and the European Union as a whole; further believes that freedom of movement should be maintained irrespective of the UK’s future membership status of the European Union; notes that the Gracious Speech lacked proposals for bills that expand parental leave, protect the NHS, introduce tougher legal targets to address the climate emergency, increase the minimum wage to an equal wage, bring justice to the 3.8 million women born in


the 1950s who will be denied their pensions at the proper age, and abolish nuclear weapons; further regrets that the Gracious Speech does not contain provision to end the freeze of social security benefits or scrap the two-child limit and so-called rape clause attached to child tax credits; rejects the Government’s proposals for leaving the European Union; and believes the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill must not become law unless and until it has received legislative consent from the Senedd and the Scottish Parliament.’.
