The King and Us, Hammer Blow

The King and Us
Not many people at age 74 get a new job, much less one they'll have for the rest of their lives, but such is the case with King Charles III. This weekend, the new monarch will be crowned, marking the beginning of the arduous task of following in his late mother's footsteps. According to surveys, not only is Queen Elizabeth II more beloved than Prince Charles, but so are William, Anne, and the rest of the royal family's offspring.
The new King has a lot of people to win over, and not just in the UK. The word "republic" is making a comeback in current Australian political discourse. On the other hand, 60 Minutes's Tom Steinfort hears from close friends and associates of His Majesty and Queen Camilla that the monarchy is in good hands with them.

Christine Ahern of The TODAY Show, on assignment for 60 MINUTES, discusses the devastating impact the VBA's inaction has on people who are just trying to put a roof over their heads.
