Day of Rage protests - live updates: Hundreds march on Downing Street demanding Theresa May quits

Follows slimmed-down Queen's Speech as Tories struggle to secure majority needed to pass legislation

Queen's Speech in 90 seconds

Hundreds of protesters are marching from west London to Parliament calling for Theresa May to resign over her handling of the Grenfell Tower tragedy.

The demonstration comes as the Queen delivered the 2017 Queen's Speech, which Conservative sources have told The Independent could be Theresa May's first and last as Prime Minister.

As the Prime Minister struggles to cobble together a parliamentary majority, there was no mention of many of the Tories’ key manifesto pledges.

Plans to axe universal free school meals, scrap the triple lock on pensions and lift the ban on new grammar schools now all seem likely to be ditched.

Instead, the speech focused on Brexit, with the Prime Minister under mounting pressure to abandon her plans for a hard Brexit that could result in Britain leaving the EU without a trade deal.

Other measures include new laws to improve protections of domestic violence, protect private renters from irresponsible landlords, tackle extremist ideologies, and protect people's online data.

The Government will also act to reduce motor insurance premiums and lower energy prices. The National Living Wage will be raised.

The speech included no mention of Donald Trump's scheduled state visit, fuelling reports that it may not happen. The US President is reported to be concerned about public protests in the UK should he visit.

Here's Lib Dem leader Tim Farron commenting on the Queen's Speech and ministers' plans for a new bill to promote space technology:

“Having dropped everything from the Dementia Tax to fox hunting I assume the only reason they have proposed a Space Bill is so they can shoot their manifesto into space and pretend it never existed."

In the House of Commons, Jeremy Corbyn is listing the Conservative manifesto pledges that weren't mentioned in the Queen's Speech. He asks Theresa May to confirm that plans to restrict winter fuel payments, scrap universal free school meals, hold a vote on fox-hunting and bring back grammar schools have all been scrapped.

Attacking the Tories' promise to reduce immigration to the "tens of thousands", Corbyn says:

"Lets decide our immigration on the basis of the needs of our communities and our economy, not to the tune of the dog-whistle cynicism of Lynton Crosby or the hate campaigns of some sections of our press, whose idea of patriotism is to base themselves in an overseas tax haven."

Calling for investment in public services, the Labour leader says:

"It's not good enough to be grateful to our public service workers only at a moment of crisis and disaster. They deserve dignity: the dignity or fully funded services, the dignity of not seeing their jobs cut and living standards fall."

He attacks Theresa May over policing cuts, saying the "current Prime Minister should correct the mistakes of the former Home Secretary". They are, of course, the same person.

Theresa May and Philip Hammond, the Chancellor, are sitting side-by-side as the Prime Minister waits to respond to the Queen's Speech. That wouldn't have happened had she won a majority at the election - Mr Hammond, reports suggest, would now be sitting on the backbenches having been sacked as Chancellor. As it is, Ms May knows she no longer has the authority to start firing senior colleagues.

At the Day of Rage demonstration, one protester tells Maya Oppenheim the Grenfell Tower fire was allowed to happen because the residents of the tower were poor. "There is no way a fire like this would have happened in a luxury property complex", said Keru, who grew up close to the tower. "They would've had sprinklers they wouldn't have had cladding. When it comes to social housing they cut corners but for who or what? That's the question."

Back in the House of Commons, Jeremy Corbyn wraps up his speech by openly gloating over Theresa May about the general election result:

"My party won almost 13 million votes at the election. That was because we offered hope and opportunity for all and a real change to our country. The Prime Minister began the election campaign saying 'If I lose just six seats I will lose this election'. When it came to it, she lost more than four times that many seats to Labour alone.

From Cardiff to Canterbury, from Stockton to Kensington, people chose hope over fear and they sent an unequivocal message that austerity must be brought to an end."

Mocking Theresa May's election slogan, he says no part of the Tories' record could be described as "strong and stable".
