Oliver Cromwell banned all Christmas activities

Of course he did! All of us do things that others do not agree with!!

no he was not popular at all

He didnt just banned food he banned Christmas all together. Type in the box:- Why did oliver cromwell banned Christmas for more information.

oliver cromwell sorry that's all i can think of

he felt that he was the most powerful of all ireland and no one could tell him what to do.

lol i hve luked all ova thee nett but dere is nufink :(

Yes he had 10 but only 7 survived until adult hood - all girls and him

well it was very hard like the medieval times!

When Oliver Cromwell was in charge, he banned all the fun things, christmas, easter etc. ( He called it sinful ) The People were annoyed and brought back a King, Charles II. He is usually known as the " King who brought back partying " he brought the fun things back that Oliver Cromwell had banned. That is true but if you want to hear a funny song too, follow the link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2kyNbZc7oc

he was like a king because he ruled England when Charles 1st was beheaded and he did all the things kings were supposed to do like raising taxes so he could get the money himself and stuff

no he was not because he did what most protestants wanted him to do but that was for his own good. but he was cuz e killed ppl fo no reason at all!!

He made the election fairer so all kinds of people had the chance to be a leader He didn't take bribes so it was harder to get out of prison if u were rich He made a proper full time army called the New Model Army so it was stronger and better trained than the one before where people just got called up to fight. That is why Oliver Cromwell was good :D

Cromwell's supporters answer to his enemies calling him greedy was, "Cromwell gave a lot of his power to other Puritans and all Puritans wanted to end all wicked behaviour. So where is the greed in that?" Hope these helped this question was part of my history homework which was Oliver Cromwell- Hero or Villain? :)

Assuming this refers to The English Civil War, and Oliver Cromwell - no-one was "covered in warts." Oliver Cromwell, when having a portrait painted, famously instructed the artist to depict him "warts and all," meaning he did not want the portrait to be unrealistically flattering. He had no more warts than anyone else.

the monarchy, the crown jewels, all sports, Christmas, theatre, betting, dancing, basically anything Oliver Cromwell had banned

By chopping off King Charles the first's head and exiling all potential heirs to the throne.

Well in that time Britain had no King or Queen but a man called Oliver Cromwell was in charge, not many people liked him because he banned all things fun because he thought that they got in the way of worshiping God.

Grinding poverty for the people who will have to pay for this extravagance! There is fawning all around to this obscure inbred German family LONG LIVE THE MEMORY OF OLIVER CROMWELL!

They hate to be forced into things they do not wish or cannot do and hate being kept inside all day.

It was believed that Cromwell's enemies said that he was greedy because he took all the powers of a normal king just without the name.

Not paying attention to them all the time.

(my choice)All the things i hate

He was a good man and bad at the same time. In some ways he was good because when he had portrait painted he wanted it to be exactly like him "warts and all", this tells me he could be an honest man. There are many different opinions on Oliver Cromwell, some people thought he believed in giving people greater freedom. However others said he crushed anyone who disagreed with him! hope this helps ;)
