Boris Johnson has said the Government aims to create a "new age of opportunity" as MPs returned to the Commons after The Queen opened a new Parliamentary session.
Queen Elizabeth II delivered her government-written speech from a throne in the House of Lords this morning as part of a ceremony rich with centuries of British tradition.
After the speech, Mr Johnson told MPs: "As we prepare to get Brexit done by October 31, we are setting out now our vision of an open, global, free-trading United Kingdom."
Meanwhile, Brexit talks are ongoing in Brussels, with Mr Johnson's spokesman saying "there is still a lot of work to do".
