With Prince Chuckie at the Royal Helm, the UK goes to hell much faster. Does he get the title, “King”?

Long ago life was clean
Sex was bad, called obscene
And the rich were so mean
Stately homes for the Lords
Croquet lawns, village greens
Victoria was my queen
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, ‘toria

Noticed the date immediately.
Learned to look at the date up-front because there have been too many of those in the past.
But, why would somebody post something so old without first indicating that it’s a very old article, without one having to look at the date of the article?

I’ve spent many hours going through old newspaper archives.
One thing you get is a sense of just how much the journalism profession has deteriorated over the years.
