Boris Johnson’s plan for Britain revealed – from new energy strategy to scrapping EU laws

But he will warn: “However great our compassion and our ingenuity, we cannot simply spend our way out of this problem.

“We need to grow our way out of it.”

In a bid to reclaim the political agenda after a rough six months, the PM will say he is determined to put the country back on track by making the most of Brexit freedoms and fighting crime.

About 30 proposed laws will be unveiled as the Tories eye the next Election — due before the end of 2024.

CLASS ACTION

Major schools shake-up to be announced TOMORROW in Queen's Speech

A new Public Order Bill will help police curb disruptive eco-protesters who stick themselves to roads and buildings.

Police will be able to use stop-and-search powers to prevent such action while sentences for those who do manage it will range up to a year in jail.

A new UK’s human rights law will be able to override European Court rulings.

Mr Johnson will say: “This Queen’s Speech will get our country back on track and I will strive — and this Government will strive — night and day to deliver it.

“We will get the country through the aftershocks of Covid, just as we got through Covid — with every ounce of ingenuity and compassion and hard work.

“By urgently pressing on with our mission to create the high-wage, high-skilled jobs that will drive economic growth across our whole United Kingdom.

“That is the long-term, sustainable solution to ease the burden on families and businesses.”

Last night, Home Secretary Priti Patel said: “The law-abiding, responsible majority have had enough of anti-social, disruptive protests carried out by a self-indulgent minority who seem to revel in causing mayhem and misery.

“The Public Order Bill will give the police the powers they need to clamp down on this outrageous behaviour and ensure the British public can go about their lives.”
