"Time passes and things change. That's one of the few things in life that we can absolutely sure of..."
The Queen of Ireland, Panti Bliss, has taken to Irish airwaves to deliver an eloquent Queen's Speech.
A highlight of TV3's festive schedule, Panti will give a speech recalling some of the main moments in Irish history that have occurred over the past 12 months.
"Let's stop fearing change. Let's look at ourselves, at Ireland, with an open mind and credit ourselves with what we do well, but also have the courage to see what we don't do so well and then have the courage to change it".
Reflecting on one of the most defining years in Irish history, Panti makes reference to change, diversity, the marriage referendum and more.
"We didn't change the definition of marriage on May 22nd, but we did expand the definition of Irishness to include people like me, and for that, I'm very grateful".
This is beautiful. ALL HAIL THE QUEEN.
