Queen's visit to Victoria Park brightens East London day
The fine spring weather favors the Queen's to inspect Victoria Park in East London today. Loyal demonstrations are expected in less fashionable districts, marking the royal visit as a significant public event and a sign of Her Majesty's improved health. Parliament progresses amid perceived inefficiency as key bills move slowly. The Railway and Canal Traffic Bill faces amendments with Dodson to lead a new commission. The Supreme Court of Judicature Bill heads to a select committee. Fawcett's Dublin University Bill aims to end tests at Trinity College and Dublin University, with cabinet support and expected royal assent before May 23.
