Chris_Sleeps Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Cromwell called himself Lord Protector but he turned out to be more Nazi than protector He wasn't a nazi by any means; he just followed on a culture of religious persecution. A theme that started with Henry VIII, and carried on his daughters. Your history won't work if you're trying to fit your finely tuned critique of socialism into this. The monarchy, as we have it, has descended from a line that is built on anti-catholic religious intolerance. An absolute truth. After Cromwell people welcomed the royals back with open arms. They would rather have a monarch than a political dictator any day. That isn't literally true. Restoration of the monarchy was the simplest solution, but it was the work of Cromwell that made Parliament what it is today. The man still has his statue there. He should be remembered - for he was hugely important to how this country was run. We're the product of Cromwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
