To quote from Wikipedia "However, his measures against Catholics in Scotland and Ireland have been characterised as genocidal..." I do not believe the Cromwell ever let Catholics return to England and live.
No it was Oliver Cromwell
You don't give a timespan, but there are synagogues dating back to the 1700s, and of course there is also the decree of 1657 issued by Oliver Cromwell readmitting Jews to England. The question is rather puzzling if it applies to the period since 1657 as nobody doubts that have been some Jews in England and Scotland since then.
* The first Jews were brought to England by William the Conqueror. * They were expelled from England by Edward I in 1290. (No reason is recorded for the expulsion). * They were readmitted by Oliver Cromwell from 1657. The numbers remained small till persecution in Tsarist Russia forced many Jews to flee westwards.
In 1657 by Cromwell.

After Cromwell: the Restoration.
This is a vast topic, so it is probably best to look at the link. Please bear in mind that between the expulsion of the Jews from England in 1290 till the readmission of Jews by Oliver Cromwell in 1656-57 there were no (or practically no) Jews in England. The Puritans were, on the whole, less anti-Jewish than other groups. Note that the 1290 expulsion did not apply in Scotland.

Oliver Cromwell in England.
Oliver Cromwell took control of England's government and placed himself as Lord Protector of England after the monarchy was abolished. However, citizens were frustrated by continuing instability in England. Many citizens also disliked Cromwell's Puritan ideas. Even though Cromwell had the support of the military, his son could not gain the people's favor after Cromwell died. England restored the monarchy and offered the throne to Charles II.
