I'm not sure what happens either. I'm guessing that it then goes back to coalition building, and if no-one can get a majority together then it goes back to an election.

Of course if the tories had a minority government and wanted to push through a queens speech they may just leave out a wad of legislation for the first speech and hope to get more support later on. Then it descends into ineffectual government that can't do anything.
