he was executed after loosing the war with Oliver Cromwell, He had a large number of defeated supporters who would definitely not have agreed with his execution.

Only 40 of the judges at his execution signed his death warrant with no execution, the rest were forced to sign it. In the end only about 59 of them original 132 judges signed the death warrant..
