Parliament withdrew support from James II primarily due to his overtCatholicism and attempts to promote religious tolerance for Catholics, which alarmed the predominantly Protestant political landscape. His autocratic rule, disregard for parliamentary authority, and controversial decisions, such as appointing Catholics to key positions, further fueled discontent.
