The PM is allowed to use the full dignity of the sovereign to launch his programme for the next session of Parliament. Lords and Commons have to listen without comment, before the PM sets it out in more detail to the Commons at the start of a five day set of debates in both Houses, when the Opposition can reply.
This year the King has been placed in a difficult position setting out a programme for a PM struggling to keep his job and to keep a majority of votes for his plans. It will be made far worse by having at its heart a dangerous constitutional Bill seeking to give back control over many of our laws and some of our money to the EU against the clear mandate of the referendum.
The PM wants the EU to take much of our fish, to decide on student support to allow more EU students to come to the UK at our expense, and to require us to adopt many of their farming, trade and business laws. He wants us to face higher energy costs by adopting the EU carbon tax and emissions trading scheme, He wants us to impose an EU like tariff or carbon border tax on non EU imports. He wants us to accept more people under 30 to come here looking for jobs, homes and benefits. He wants us to pay them for this by sending money to the EU.
No wonder Labour lost so many seats and votes in Brexit favouring parts of England. The PM should not be giving our sovereignty away. This is an abuse of our King in Parliament.
May 13, 2026
Well at least liebours true colours are being exposed. The reason Starmer is clinging on is because his handlers want him to complete his programme of EU integration. He will not be allowed to resign before the destruction is complete.
For this we can blame the tories who could
Much of the have repealed much of the EU legislation and who could have given us a proper brexit.
Most of the clowns sitting in Westminster are happy to go along with the betrayal, I just hope there is a rebellion before it reaches the statute books.
May 13, 2026
These are all policies Starmer kept quiet about during his general election campaign.
His message was elect Labour because we are not the Conservatives. Don’t worry we won’t rock the boat.
This is all very different to what Desperate Dan below is claiming.
May 13, 2026
Mr Starmer said throughout the campaign and in his manifesto that he would reset the relationship but not rejoin the EU, the single market or allow free movement. Which is EXACTLY what he has proposed today
May 13, 2026
Sophistry
May 13, 2026
@Ian Wragg – The Traitors couldn’t honour or handle a democratic vote. The Ballot could not have been simpler ‘stay’ or ‘leave’ The Country chose leave. May the remainer like Starmer didn’t want that so reneged. Johnson had an overwhelming majority vote( he even used as his platform for election) to do just that and he reneged. All those that followed could have left the EU they all reneged. Its not just 2TK it is the UK Parliament they fight against Democracy and their own purpose,
May 14, 2026
Yes, his one policy is to drag us into Associate Membership of the EU.

“Brexit favouring parts of England”
Our media regularly refers to the “Brexit vote” or something similar.
There was no such thing.
“Brexit” was not on the ballot paper.
In the democratic vote, the majority of voters chose to leave the EU.
A once in a generation decision, we were told.
Are there any parts of England which favour “Brexit” over “Leave” ?
Who knows ?
May 13, 2026
@oldwulf – ‘leave’ means ‘leave’ unless you are an MP, a lazy free-loading MP. In essence the UK Parliament just wants a simple life being a local precocial Council do the bidding of the unelected unaccountable elsewhere. In that case do we even need them?
May 13, 2026
I’m no legal expert but I vaguely remember court cases after the 2016 referendum which tried to stop “Brexit” and to remain in the EU. Judicial Reviews ?
I can’t remember any legal cases which tried to stop “Brexit” and to enforce the “Leave” vote ?
Is it possible for someone to take legal action now, to question what the PM is trying to do ?
May 13, 2026
I should think the King heartily approves of closer integration to the EU. As for being abused, he can always abdicate if he doesn’t like his role.
May 13, 2026
Manifesto 2024 -‘There will be no return to the single market, the customs union, or freedom of movement’
Our King could say he’s not commenting on anything that’s clearly against the manifesto promise
May 13, 2026
Yes, I don’t think the King will object to any of the PM’s ideas Lord Jophn lists for closer integration with the EU, particularly anything which ramps up Net Zero.
May 13, 2026
Yes, King Charles III could retire/abdicate in the way the Queen of Denmark (in her early 80s) and the Queen of the Netherlands had both done (aged 75). Not that I think KC3’s eldest son would be any better.
The UK had a potential Queen Anne II but it stuck to the practice of the eldest child inheriting the throne. This was even though the population as a whole might have preferred a more pragmatic and less political monarch, one who would fulfil her role w.r.t. our constitutional monarchy as well as possible and avoid getting involved with global organisations whose aims may conflict with that constitution.
May 13, 2026
It’s beyond belief. To think how we are regularly lectured on fairness and how other tyrannical governments ride rough shod over the people’s wishes.
The Remain camp will be pleased, for now.
Let’s hope this pushes people to shake off the shackles of restraint.
I don’t subscribe to the set of ‘British values’ or ‘British tolerance’ we have repeatedly been told we must live by because they are just a set of rules, made up by the likes of those that have destroyed this nation and its people, for that exact end.

May 13, 2026
Good morning.
And this is why he refuses to resign. His job is to bring us back into the fold of the EU.
Funny how all those REMAIN / REJOINERS are silent about democracy and voting when it comes to what they want. They complained that the size of the vote was not big enough and that we did not know what we were voting for. Now, just like last time, we are being forced down a path we do not want to go down.
We here have discussed the problems with our so called democracy and possible solutions. It is no high time that this was front and centre of the political debate. Because no PM. political part and government should ever be able to do such a thing unless it is in their manifesto. And if it is not, the we need to have a referendum on it.
May 13, 2026
@Mark B – The UK Parliament has fought against democracy for a long time not just the last 40 years. We forget that the UK People never had a voice in giving up sovereignty, democracy and freedom. The UK Tories just gave it all up because they wanted a quiet life.
May 13, 2026
You’re not being forced down a path you do not want to go down. You’re being forced down a path you voted to go down. All decisions taken at Westminster – that’s Brexit. And Westminster’s decision is to re-set relations with the EU. Westminster’s decision – Brexit, exactly what you voted for
May 13, 2026
@Economist Dan – what Brexit? When will it be allowed? When will the EU stop demanding money making the rules up as the go along without any one having a say. The UK is alone in the World that to buy EU Goods it has to submit to EU Governance and Laws inside its own territory. The EU doesn’t exert the same pressure on China , the USA or even Russia as it does on the UK and they do more trade with the EU
May 13, 2026
Drivel!
May 13, 2026
The whole point of Brexit – the WHOLE point – was that Westminster would in future decide our laws. And PM Starmer here proposes that Westminster shall choose – freely, consensually, as a result of the votes of the British people cast at the last General Election – to follow the EU’s rules. Not because we are in the EU. But because Westminster decides. This is Brexit! It’s what you voted for! And yet still you’re not satisfied!
Reply Starmer should offer a referendum on re set as it so obviously seeks to reverse our decision in the referendum.
May 13, 2026
That’s a very convoluted logic “Economist” Dan but of the kind I’ve come to expect from many EU supporters.
I’m sure this is an abuse of the King in Parliament but much worse it is an abuse of Starmers (temporary) position and my hard won rights.
May 13, 2026
The decision in the referendum was to Leave the EU. We left the EU. End of. If Starmer were proposing to rejoin, he’d need a referendum. But he is not proposing that
May 13, 2026
You don’t have to read between the lines to realise that Starmer want us back into the EU ….using words to disguise that is taking the voting public for mugs
May 13, 2026
Left the EU End of…hmm…the deal we got from a remain minded bunch of politicians after the Referendum was not even close to really leaving the EU.
And now a second betrayal as we re enter the EU without a mandate from the people.
May 13, 2026
+1
May 14, 2026
PM Johnson and Lord Frost being ‘a remain minded bunch of politicians’? What about instead ‘a bunch of incompetent politicians’ who sabotaged the exit from the EU and now enjoy their money giving speeches in international conferences or as a Telegraph column-writing Lord. Not bad an outcome for providing a botched job six years ago?
May 13, 2026
Choosing to Leave was not just to step away from the EU, that being the first step for many people I have known, talked to, considered, what we wanted UK (even for England alone) in the future. The hope was for a further step to being self sufficient as far as possible, to extricate from importing life’s near essentials, to take a brave step from being almost subservient to the USA – not out of intense dislike but being aware that ‘special’ friendship produced a bill to be paid. So now we recognise the forces at play in not allowing even that first step in what was likely to become a long march.
May 13, 2026
Spot on
May 13, 2026
@Reply – just second guessing, as there was never a vote a political rules based union to join first time around, Starmer likely sees his mandate to rejoin is his personal choice because of in legalese the legal precedent has already been created. The real failure was May, the UK Parliament all refusing to honour the referendum, again in ignoring the people he legal precedent has already been created
May 13, 2026
Starmer should resign. He’s despised on the doorstep and most of the Labour party can see he’s a liability.
May 13, 2026
ED:
Do you mean “following EU rules” or, as you have actually said, “following the EU’s rules”? I think the PM wishes to make us follow the latter. Either way, although we make a Parliament “sovereign” to make our policies and laws this sovereignty is only temporary (up until now for a maximum of 5 years but who knows) this does not give any such temporary Parliament the right to give away our country’s sovereignty, either temporarily or worse still, permanently, to another country or entity. This should only be feasible via a referendum or democracy has been forsaken and to quote our PM, this could lead Britain down a very dark path.
May 13, 2026
Before that being necessary the PM should call for a GE to determine what level of mandate is applicable.
May 13, 2026
@Economist Dan – the referendum question was simple ‘Stay’ or ‘Leave’ no other option was suggested. The People voted to leave Parliament refused. Johnson went into an election promising to get Brexit done he and Parliament broke that promise and refused.
There has never mean a manifesto or mandate put to the UK Electorate promising or even suggesting “that that Westminster shall choose – freely, consensually, as a result of the votes of the British people cast at the last General Election” about Brexit. That was just invented to-day. If that is what Parliament wants lets have the General Election to confirm.
May 14, 2026
Brexit happened 6 years ago. You won’t take yes for an answer

Starmer appears to be acting for the EU and China. Why else did we have Erasmus, the fishing deal (Keir Starmer’s government agreed to a deal extending European Union (EU) fishing boats’ access to UK waters for an additional 12 years (until 2038), Chagos… what if anything is the UK getting out of this.
I knew Starmer would be appalling but he is even more abysmal, anti-democratic and immoral than even I expected of this dreadful man.
Sir Keir Starmer a while back labelled entirely reasonably comments about immigration (made by billionaire Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe as “offensive and wrong”). The only thing Sir Jim should appologise for is saying Starmer was a decent and honourable man. He is nothing of the sort – witness Lucy Connolly and his countless lies and blatant serial dishonesty.
May 13, 2026
It is now clear for all who have the ability to see, Keir Starmer is operating under the influence of the EU and is conducting policy that returns the UK into the stifling arms of EU bureaucracy.
Starmer is rejected here in the UK by the electorate even on election day when he claims the huge majority was a vote of confidence he only polled 20.4% of electoral support.
The single minded decision to remain on office following the recent elections even against the advice of members in his own cabinet shows he is being supported by higher power than cabinet members. Those higher powers I suspect are the EU and its agents.
It is telling that Chuka Umunna was walking into Downing St yesterday at the height of the Starmer crisis….
May 13, 2026
The PM should not be giving our sovereignty away. This is an abuse of our King in Parliament.
The King should be taking Starmer to one side and saying to him, listen here little man my people voted over 17millions votes to get out of the dreaded EU and if you even think about taking us back in the Tower with its Ravens will have a new resident in it for a very long time
May 13, 2026
EU integration and rule taking by stealth always was the initial plan, and was for 40 years until the referendum, now we are going back to square one again, but this time we will pay an even higher price. Those who vote for this so called closer working arrangement in Parliament, are not British Patriots serving the British people, they are loyal to a foreign power, in war time they would be called traitors.
May 13, 2026
A Mandate and a Manifesto sanctioned and approved by the Crown and not democracy, the People. I didn’t expect anything different.
Without legitimate, i.e. approval by democratic means we are being forced back under unelected unaccountable EU control. I am the Law, I am the ruler and I cant be removed.
The others things lined up the Chagos giveaway,it is anticipated that Trump may not be elected before Starmer has to face the UK Electorate, so playing the waiting game and the old pals network will get their pay day.

Wasn’t it Michel Barnier who scoffed during the Brexit negotiations that in ten year’s time the UK would come crawling back to Brussels? How prescient he was – how right he is.
And what are “we” doing?
May 13, 2026
Barnier’s government fell on 5 December 2024 after a no-confidence vote, making him the shortest-serving Prime Minister in the French Fifth Republic.
Barnier’s government became the first to lose a motion of no-confidence since Georges Pompidou’s in 1962.
In 2025, Barnier returned to the National Assembly after he won a by-election in Paris’s 2nd constituency in the heart of the Rive Gauche.
‘crawling back ‘ indeed.

@Viv Evans – The UK is more than a handful of MPs. Those MPs when they stood for election did not stand on a manifesto to crawl back in.

May 13, 2026
Before offering a referendum what about having a proper constitution that anybody could easily consult (ie not the mess of disjointed texts produced over at least a century that no specialist can be sure how they apply) and where it would be clearly indicated the conditions when referenda can be called and how final results should be implemented (super majority?) What about allowing referendum being called if so many electors (500k, 1m, 2m, whatever) call for one?
The present situation is that Parliament is sovereign. Parliament is elected via general election using FPTP. Is Parliament (HoC+HoL) suddenly not sovereign? How comes that now referendum should be called to change that? Simply because the present Government is not to one’s liking?
Wasn’t it a soon-to-be PM close to lots of people’s heart who said that ‘perhaps the late Lord Attlee was right when he said that the referendum was a device for dictators and demaguoges’.
See Margaretthatcher.org 11/03/1975 Hansard HC 888/304-17.

As there was a referendum to leave the EU then I feel there should be a referendum to rejoin the EU.

You honestly think you are cleverer than that average Briton.

May 13, 2026
Labour have given up on their traditional voters. They treat them with contempt; in Hillary Clinton’s words, they are the deplorables. They have concluded that if they stand on a rejoin platform they can collect sufficient votes from Green and Lib Dem supporters to win the next election.
May 13, 2026
With President Trump about to sell out Taiwan and probably Ukraine to get help with Iran we can be sure he is planning an invasion of Cuba as well – he has said so more than once – we are living in much different times than we were ten years ago and under the circumstance
we know that the PM must be carrying confidences from intelligence services and opposite numbers in Europe and other places therefore we should guard against censure of what the King will say. The King is the all seeing eye and has been aroubd a long time – Starmer is there for a short time only but both are acting in the interest of the country and the people and in these dangerous time both militarily and economically we should first listen to what he has to say with open mind – if possible.
May 15, 2026
The press ganging of that last Ukrainian men must stop!
The war must stop!
It is lost.
When the Ukrainians can tell you Europeans what you have done to them, I expect you not to be able to live with the guilt. The Crime against humanity.
Trump is RIGHT to stop activity in Ukraine, Putin is supporting the activity in Iran. He is doing noth8n* to oppose it.
May 13, 2026
This EU reset is a typical cynical Starmer pattern of the old Mandelson “Rub their noses in it” Labour party while still insisting he is working for the hard working class and best for the country spin.
As Trump said he should focus on drilling the golden gift of North Sea oil instead of “windmilling the country to death”!
May 13, 2026
“But as I raise my gaze above the daily work of ministerial life, it is clear to see that whatever the magnitude of individual achievements and progress, they are now being dwarfed and undermined by a lack of values-driven leadership at the centre. It is clear from recent days, that the public across the UK has now irretrievably lost confidence in you as Prime Minister.”
Zubir Ahmed was Health Innovation and Safety minister, resignation letter
Then there is this
‘Eleven Labour-affiliated unions – including GMB, Unite, and Unison – are expected to release a statement today saying the government “cannot continue on its current path” and predicting Starmer will have to resign before the next general election.’
Those that support Two Tier Kier are beginning to wake up and smell the coffee, he has a different agenda and desire to what he promised them, what he has a mandate for, what he said in the manifesto – that is just the side show, the deflection.
He needs to drive a wedge between the UK & the USA(our biggest single trading partner Country) to smooth the path back into the EU. He needs to create economic destruction for the WEF dream which he hold dear ‘the great reset’. He is not about the UK economy or improving the lot of the UK Citizen, he appears to hate them so is seeking to destroy them.
Being the PM of the UK was just his vehicle to achieve his personal dreams and aspirations. Labour voters, Labour sponsors are personal pawns that he could be said to hate.

As they would say in some quarters 2TK is completely off script playing out his own dreams pandering to his own self-esteem. He demonstrates the desire for a society that is divided, a society he hates so much as it hampers his personal utopia. He even hates everything ‘old labour’ his electorate want for their country, they didn’t get it, its not their its his.

The latest brief piece to camera from Kemi Badenoch has confirmed the Tories will leave the ECHR if they are elected at the next time of asking. That is a huge step in the right direction. Now all they have to do is to confirm they are repealing the 2008 Climate Change Act and with it the Net Zero legislation. That would at a stroke allow manufacturing to restart, would lower energy costs immediately and give the exchequer a massive boost from tax revenue accrued from North Sea oil and gas exploration.
She is saying the right things, such a pity it is ten years too late….

@Rod Evans. Could this be an aligment towards Reform, with a view towards an electoral pact at the next GE?
May 13, 2026
European Union
The King’s Speech will feature a bill that allows for closer alignment with the European Union by creating a framework for a swift transfer of Brussels laws on to the UK statute book.
Sir Keir will attempt to sell this as an important measure to boost the economy – but it has been derided by the Tories as a “terrible idea” that would “drag” the country backwards.
Alex Burghart MP, shadow chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, said Sir Keir was “holed up in Downing Street desperately coming up with terrible ideas”.
He added: “He seems determined to give us the worst of both worlds by making Britain take EU rules with no say over how they’re made.
“The Prime Minister should be solving the problems the country faces, not dragging us back into arguments that voters have long since moved on from.”
No 10 will frame the EU as something which will deliver more trade, more opportunity for young people and help to reduce the cost of living.
May 13, 2026
Yet, when his supporters appear on GB News, they claim their leader, PM Starmer, is all but God’s gift to the country and will maintain those “Red Lines” to prevent our re-joining the EU. LOL. We do not believe you.
Brexit means “LEAVE”. Sadly and alarmingly, after 10 years, we still have some ties to Brussels. Why?
I often wonder why anyone wishes GB to be ruled by an undemocratic, faceless group of foreigners who are unelected and unaccountable to the public, who would set our own laws from a foreign capital, in preference to the privilege of being able to hire and fire at regular intervals, our very own law-making British parliamentarians based in London, always via the quintessential democratic ballot box?

Once again Labour are going far beyond their 2024 manifesto
”With Labour, Britain will stay outside of the EU. But to seize the opportunities ahead, we must make Brexit work. We will reset the relationship and seek to deepen ties with our European friends, neighbours and allies. That does not mean reopening the divisions of the past. There will be no return to the single market, the customs union, or freedom of movement”
They have ‘no’ mandate beyond that manifesto statement policy …..the opposition should be shouting this out
May 13, 2026
@glen cullen – agreed, but time and time again they have collectively demonstrated they lie. Johnson massive majority based on the lie ‘Get Brexit Done’ he did the opposite. His team wouldn’t even remove EU Laws and Rules that hamper the UKs independents and growth although he said that would, instead the did the opposite embedded and enshrined them to ensure they were there.
May 13, 2026
It is ironic that the King is compelled by process to read out intentions that are opposed to the sovereignty of the nation of which he is head of state.
The EU is a bunch of countries where there are some benefits in mutual trade when the terms are agreeable, as in any transaction. We as a supplier are better than they, otherwise we would buy more from them than they do from us.
They act like a butcher’s shop operating most branches in the market. They want to control our trading regulations and impose their own rules over ours. They want us to pay just to be allowed to buy from any of their branches. They want to appropriate stock belonging to our fishmongers. They want their young folk to take jobs in our hardware shops when our own people are hoping to find work there. They want us to pay their unemployment benefit and to control our energy.
Losing our freedom solely for the purpose of buying 50% of our needs from a rogue supplier is folly. The EU accounts for less than 16% of world trade. Surely, we could find better suppliers, friendly terms and more attractive prices among the businesses providing the other 84%.
May 13, 2026
Are Britain’s rulers quietly dismantling democracy ? Robert Tombs argues the Starmer government is using Henry V111 powers, EU realignment and hyper-liberal propaganda to bypass the public will. Robert Tombs’ article on the briefingsforbritain.co.uk website sums things up I think ( 24/4/26 & also in Daily T 19/4/26 )
” …. A back door entry to the EU will be the culmination of a ten-year campaign aimed at nullifying the Brexit vote. it is of course the essence of democracy to argue the case for what you want and against what you dislike but a sustained campaign of propaganda and obstruction – involving not just political parties, but also paid lobbies, universities, the BBC and public bodies aimed at shifting public opinion by blatant misinformation – is not democracy. It is a form of authoritarianism ….. ” ( 8 min read )
May 13, 2026
Mr Starmer’s reset will leave Britain outside of the EU, will not return us to the single market, the customs union, or freedom of movement. It will reset the relationship. It is 100% in line with the manifesto.
May 13, 2026
You know this is just stage one on the future moves to rejoining the EU ED.
We had a referendum on whether we should leave.
We deserve another referendum if you pro EU fans want to rejoin.

We must work to a situation where things are so good here and we are all so well off with regulation and standards so high that the EU will be knocking on our door asking for a special relationship.

Dream on. I’ll have some of what you are taking.
May 13, 2026
Does Starmer not know how to listen? His determination to take us back into the EU is a factor in last week’s voting. But does he acknowledge that? No, he increases the focus on it, then wonders why Labour lost massively in Scotland, Wales and local councils.
Why does he hate the UK and democracy so much? How has such a weak, limited person become PM? Why does a Labour government ignore the voters’ wish to have immigration, both legal and illegal, controlled? Why do they think overtaxing people and businesses will lead to growth? Whether he stays or goes, Starmer has been and will be a disaster for the UK!
May 13, 2026
Quite so, Sir John – but who is going to do anything about it?
May 13, 2026
Listening to Charles’ speech to the Congress,he seems to be.more aligned to America.
He is not daft and very aware of European history,but he also has pressure and not least the paring of the monarchy as other countries.
May 13, 2026
Two questions, Sir John. Do you think people rejected this when they voted in the council elections, or do you think it was more on local policies/needs? I hope this proposed betrayal of Brexit was a nail in the coffin. I especially worry about how any future government can get out of an eu treaty without huge losses? Would appreciate your thoughts.
May 13, 2026
The Remainer Parliament demonstrated utter contempt for the electorate. Starmer’s Gang of Remainers continue the contempt. Replacing Starmer will make little if any difference. This Gang will continue pretty much with the same aims of subjugating Britain to EU rule – it will make life much easier for the Gang – appeasing Islamists and rewarding the work-shy.
May 13, 2026
I see from a few comments on here that remainers, now to be called resetters, argue that brexits achievement of enabling Westminster to decide our future is being fulfilled by starmers reset plans … as he apparently talks from Westminster.
Democracy is not about a decision by a government about to lose at the next election, it is about implementing the result of a referendum that was promised to be a generational one. Especially when the numbers voting to leave were twice the vote for the current reset government.
May 13, 2026
We are not bound forever by the decision made in 2016. The people in 2026 or 2036 or later times can change direction if they wish. Parliament can decide on referendum and it can then be included in the Kings speech.
May 13, 2026
Agree …..but must first, be clearly state as aim number one in manifesto and given to the people in a free referendum
May 13, 2026
I’ve watched Kemmi Badenoch grow in stature since becoming Conservative leader, but her response to the King’s Speech was her best yet. Humorous but very hard hitting at the same time.
It is a pity that she has no chance of becoming Prime Minister, not because she isn’t good enough, but because what a succession of her predecessors have failed to do.
Beside Nigel Farage, she will make a formidable deputy prime minister, or senior minister.
I can only hope that common sense will prevail and the two can agree to work together.

I don’t know why we bother to pretend we like democracy, when all of the key decisions are made by the ruling classes at the top of the public sector whatever the public want or vote for

So now, in addition to the following, who all loathe and despise the Prime Liar:
Pensioners
Farmers
Veterans and current military
British Jews
Small business owners
The entire hospitality industry
The voters in Labour’s former heartlands
The rest of the working class
Parents with children at a private school
Taxpayers who are being clobbered to pay for welfare scammers and criminal migrants
we can add the King.

I totally agree with the fact that in this labour junta we are stuck with a traitorous unpatriotic government .
It’s no good the labour people voting amongst themselves for a new leader, all we will get is more of the same …..high taxes , more welfare, more illegal immigration Make everyone equal(ly) poor as dictated in the Marxist mould.
A general election ASAP is the only fair and democratic way to save us.

Our King is far from being spineless – He is doing his patriotic duty. I do not for one minute believe that he agrees with what our ruling party has written for him but he is duty bound to recite it.
