The Queen has opened parliament to lay out the government's plans for the next two years.At the top of the agenda was Brexit, and as the monarch proposed new laws to prepare the UK for its departure from the European Union (EU), some social users couldn't help noticing the Queen's choice of headwear.
As the Queen continued to announce the government's legislative programme #QueensSpeech began trending on Twitter with over 80,000 tweets so far.
Some used the hashtag to compare the Queen's floral blue hat to the EU flag.
One Twitter user posted: "Nice to see queenie dressed as the EU flag."
