Who cancelled Christmas in England during the 17th century?

Oliver Cromwell, a Puritan statesman and general who took over England, was an MP in the House of Commons and then became the leader of the Parliamentary forces in the English Civil War. When Charles I was defeated and executed Oliver Cromwell became Lord Protector of the Republic of England (virtual dictator) and because he was a Puritan he did not like celebrations. Puritans believed that Christmas was "wasteful" and threatened the core of Christianity. So, Cromwell banned Christmas as a celebration.
