Best Answer

It was after the 1688 'Glorious Revolution', with the overthrow of King James II. As part of the deal that had been made with the new monarch, Charles III, England's king was now no longer an absolute ruler, and the country was now governed by its elected parliament.

Technically Britain still isn't a democracy! this is due to the power of the un-elected members- house of lords.

However, most people say that Britain became a democracy in 1928 following the equal franchise act that gave men and women equal voting rights. Women were famously franchised (given the right to vote) in 1918 in the representation of the people act, however this granted women over thirty whilst men were allowed to vote at age 21. in 1928 men and women of the age 21 and upwards were granted the vote, making Britain a liberal democracy.
