Has Hines now joined a cult where Victoria is worshipped as the deity?

*Slandering* ANYONE is unforgivable. All you're talking about is saying mean things about her.

Are there some fogeys at large in Hawaii adoring the old dumpling of a queen-empress, as the Rastafarians do the Emperor Haile Salasse?

She was a dab enough hand at slander herself. Remember Flora Hastings, who
was on the receiving end of Victoria's harmful & wrong suspicions - before
she had even died.


Why should this particular royal person and her reputation be untouchable?
