7 dic 1641 anni - The Militia Bill

Descrizione:

within the month of December, the country was changing
the militia bill was a new step in a new direction as it was revolutionary the law would go completely against the crown as the bill addressed that the crown could not be trusted with the power of the army and so parliament should have full control of it as it would be in safer more stable hands. as the bill was set out to change two factors
-remove the king's power over the trained bands completely
-give parliament the power to appoint army commanders
this was shocking to everyone as this was personally attacking the king's royal prerogative power and giving that prerogative power towards parliament and almost sharing the king's power with the whole country making him less important and less valuable. it was shocking.
so Charles had to defend himself and his position so he moved himself to the role of defender of the fundamental law. and with this only just protected himself. with the help to his royalist party fans
