King Charles set out the British government's plans for new legislation over the coming months on Tuesday with a highly political package of measures, including the promise of tougher sentences for serious criminals, before a national election expected next year. The King's Speech — given by the monarch but written by government ministers - opens the new session of parliament. The government plans to introduce five pieces of legislation intended to toughen sentences and deter crime in a sign that the governing Conservatives hope to make this a key election issue.
