Queen's Speech debate
House of Lords
Parliament
Labour spokesperson Baroness Sherlock begins her speech by detailing what she sees as the "upside" of things that were left out of the Queen's Speech, including the absence of new grammar schools and plans to end free school lunches.
But she says there's "no vision for education" and no concrete plan to ensure schools are properly funded.
She makes a similar criticism on social care and pensions, saying the Queen's Speech is not offering anything specific.
