The Anglican Church (which began with the Church of England) IS a Protestant church, according to its basis of faith (the 39 Articles). Much Anglo-Catholic practice contradicts these articles.

Classically a protestant is a Lutheran, following Luther's actions in protesting against the papacy .In 1791 Roman Catholics described themselves as ,'Protestant, Catholic Dissenters' in a letter to the House of Lords!!!

Anglicans are Catholics with a history of some two thousand years development in Britain.

Anglicanism (the Church of England) is similar to Catholicism but its hierarchy ends with its Archbishops. It has no cardinals and does not follow the Pope.
