It’s also not true. Most recently William and Mary were invited in by Parliament to overthrow James II (VIIth of Scotland) who was trying to revive Catholicism. Since they had to raise an army outside and land by ship, still counts.
A base canard. Jimmy was protestant enough for any reasonable man. It's just that he was perhaps a bit overly fond of ceremony.
He was definitely opposed by the sort of non-conforming teetotaling bluenose bible-beating bunko artists who would throw us all in jail for celebrating ...gasp ...Christmas!
I must get to church now. The snakes get kind of rasty if they ain't fed reglar.
So, it’s not true, lol.
Not exactly. They were invited by the Immortal Seven politicians, six nobles and a bishop.
They were of course representative of a lot more people, in Parliament and the nation.
William landed in November, but wasn't proclaimed King by Parliament (one that may not have been strictly legal, at that) until late in February.
