Priti Patel – 2021 Comments on Licensing Extension for Platinum Jubilee

The comments made by Priti Patel, the Home Secretary, on 26 December 2021.

Her Majesty The Queen is an example to us all – she has served the UK and the Commonwealth with the utmost dignity, steadfastness, and resolve throughout her remarkable reign.

The Platinum Jubilee is a truly historic occasion, and it is right that the country should mark this celebration in a special way.

This extension will enable families, friends and communities across England and Wales to raise a glass to toast Her Majesty The Queen and mark her incredible service to our country.
