If your wiring is that old, it's time for a rewire.

Yes, this. It is a rarity for a house to have wiring this old. Rewiring is no longer a thing, really, because they've all been done. Well, except for this one, clearly.

You might be able to not attach the earth but I wouldn't recommend that. It may be a better idea to get the lights rewired

Don’t not attach the earth FFS. It’s there for a reason. “I wouldn’t recommend that” - you literally just did.

This is basically all I fit when the lighting circuit has no CPC and the customer doesn't want to pay to fix it

IKEA.

But seriously, your house wiring is more than 60 years old.
