Oliver Cromwell was leader of the Commonwealth not the king. He worked as the head of parliament who had a very big say in running the country. He was the first leader of the country who had no royal blood. He was the only parliamentarian who did not want to execute James 1, however he still signed his death warrant.

He was different in that he wasn't a monarch! He was the self-styled "Lord Protector" of England, and as such became the only English head of state to ever lead Parliament.

As Victorians were in a totally different age, why would they like or dislike Cromwell !
He wasn't a monarch. He was a military governor, who styled himself 'Protector'. He was not popular with the public, who used to say "Lord protect us from Protectors".
