Most of the common people of England felt that the Declaration of Independence was correct. Riots broke out in London with commoners demanding that England fire the king and adopt rule by parliament. Lord North was at his wits end.
King George agreed not to veto a repeal of the most draconian laws most hated by the people of England. He also agreed not to veto the repeal of the punative laws so hated by the people of Ireland and Scotland. It would be a while before parliament actually repealed those.
Popular preachers took the sermons of John Wesley and John Fletcher and convinced a number of groups not to overthrow the government. Many history books refering to this era claim, "Because of the Methodists, England was spared the revolutions that wrecked Europe." This is the particular event.
