Well, so far I am thrilled with this State Visit and it is on the first few hours!
I very rarely listen to speeches, but on this occasion I listened intently to every word spoken by King Felipe and the two Speakers. The speeches are a reminder of, and underline, the close ties that exist between Britain and Spain on a number of levels, but especially between the two countries' societies.
Someone mentioned that King Felipe's speech was quite long - it's true, but I think there is much to be said after 31 years since the last State Visit!
