Prime Minister Scott Morrison has congratulated Her Majesty on her 70 years of reign as the Queen following her Platinum Jubilee and says she has been a “steadfast and unifying” presence.
“Your Majesty, we…express to Your Majesty our warm congratulations that this time of celebration of the Platinum Jubilee of your session to the throne,” Mr Morrison said.
“We express our respect and regard for the dedication you have displayed in the service of the Commonwealth and your deep and abiding commitment to Australia and its people. “Her life is one of dedication, of duty and devotion, of service over self, of steadfast and unflinching adherence to the ideals and the response to responsibilities of constitutional monarchy.
“So, Your Majesty, on this platinum jubilee, a Jubilee unlike any other, we too remember the joys and the sorrows, the challenges and changes of which Her Majesty has been apart. “We honour her service, we honour her duty and her devotion, and on behalf of all Australians, I offer our warmest congratulations to Her Majesty, the Queen, on her platinum jubilee. God save the Queen.”
