CROMWELL WAS A THORN IN THE FLESH OF THE ROYALTY IN ENGLAND
The 21st of June,2017 is a day many will remember in the annals of British politics for all of a life time as it was the day a mere commoner by name,Jeremy Corbyn defied the monarchy .
Only the puritan ,Oliver Cromwell who ruled the United Kingdom for a while in the past ever did anything near this or more than this as he actually led a rebellion that had the king removed and then tried and later executed on his orders..
Though it could be argued that Cromwell's attitude towards the king at the time was outrageous but for Sure,Corbyn told the Queen to go screw herself by refusing to bow to her like others did at a recent meeting at the British Parliament in London,United Kingdom with the rest of the watching world expecting that a change in the baton of governance was supposed to be announced
In a terse reply to a question by this reporter on the affair,source said he could not understand why the U.K. will stay hold on to a tradition of asking an elected Member of Parliament to go through a third party before coming to power and forming his or her own cabinet as eh described the practice as weird.
Oliver Cromwell's life and character has several different elements, each of
which merits study, none of which can be seen in isolation from each other.
The key themes which are reflected on here are Cromwell the soldier, for it
was his military prowess that propelled his extraordinary rise to power:
Cromwell the politician as his skilful manoeuvring maintained his position,
and Cromwell's religion which arguably was the motivation that drove him
from the 1630's onwards.
