Sir Keir Starmer appeared 'nervous' ahead of the State Opening of Parliament - displaying a 'brittle-looking facial expression' and 'attempts at smiling'.
At the State Opening the door to the Commons was slammed in Black Rod's face, leaving him to bang three times to before being given permission to enter. As he did so an MP shouted: 'Not now Andy.'
The King and Queen left Buckingham Palace in the Irish State Coach this morning pulled by six grey horses as they travelled to the State Opening of Parliament.
