because He was cruel, yet just, he was deceitful, yet triumphant. One thing that can be said is that he was most certainly the strongest king of his time. Longshanks (as he was called because of his abnormally long legs) possessed a considerably stronger character than his father, Henry III; his grandfather, King John; and his son, Edward II, and undoubtedly reminded contemporaries and historians alike to his grandfather, Henry II, and his great-uncle, Richard I. The first impression one gains of Prince Edward, while still in his youth, is a negative one.
This man is wanted for lacking the Royal culture of his father and failing miserably as king. He took over his father's war with Scotland and is showing his clumsiness as a soldier. Lords ,who are allies, had to check his power from the beginning of his reign. Unfortunately, Edward has managed to upset the ruling class by spending large amounts of money on his male consorts. Such extreme carelessness is going to endanger Edward's life! Edward II is a spendthrift, poor military leader (the defeat at Bannockburn by Robert the Bruce) and a bad ruler. His liking for men is well known throughout the land. There is nothing wrong with that. The nobles of Edward II's time don't mind except that Edward picked cruel, foolish and powerful men as his consorts. He has spent a lot of money on them, and Edward's consorts have a lot of influence in English politics. Edward is thus in conflict with the most important barons of the country who are consider him to be lazy and careless with his decisions. The barons dislike the way he ignores their advice on governing the country. Edward tends to rely on the views of his inner circle of young and inexperienced associates.
