The House of Windsor's new arrival this week provoked something which is now customarily defined as a media frenzy. Certainly in the United Kingdom this descriptive hyperbole was merited. It was nigh on impossible to get away from the little prince.
The job of British Prince is not, historically, one of particular safety - in many cases far from it. Perhaps the funds drawn from the public purse should be seen more as danger money than a living allowance. As the roll of royals shows, being a British Prince can be bad for your health, often to the point of extinction.
