Based on what you have learned about the role of the English Parliament, how do you predict it will react to a controlling ruler?

    Based on the magna carta, i believe that the English Parliament would react very poorly to a controlling ruler. I also believe that they would force more rights to be given to the nobles and therefor take power away from the king.

    The English Parliament was made up of two houses; house of the lords and house of the commons. The parliament worked together in passing laws, approving taxes, and dealing with politics and if a controlling ruler came to power they would find a way to replace him with a ruler who would rather oversee the parliament’s procedures.

    English parliament would not respond very well to one ruler because of the magna carta. The lords and the nobles might rebel against one ruler because they would be losing power.

    The English Parliament will question the power that the king has and write a law (a.k.a the magna carta) to try to limit his power and share it with the others. So, that makes the nobles feel like they have some say in passing law and approving taxes.

    I also dont think that they would react very well to a controlling ruler and would try to overthrow him with someone who supported their decisions rather then a king who only did what he thought was right.

    I believe that the English Parliament would react with a plan to overthrow their current ruler and have him replaced with a ruler that is willing to let Parliament do their job, support their decisions, and one that would be willing to work with them and not against them.

    I dont think english parliment would react very well to a controlling ruler. They would look back at the laws of magna carta and say the ruler doesnt have this much power the nobles do and over throw the ruler

    I dont think the english parliment would react good at all. The magna carta and its laws spread to the people would not be easy to transfer a ruler into the picture. It would create corruption of power

    I think that the English Parliment wouldn't react very well to a Controlling Ruler. It could lead to the overthrowing of the Ruler if he does not support their decisions. He would be replaced with a ruler that does support them.

    I think that the English Parliament would not react very well when being ruled by a controlling leader. I predict that if the ruler did not comply to the Parliament's wishes, they would devise a plan to overthrow him, and regain full control.

  13. The English Parliament probably won't react well with a controlling ruler. Decisions are carried out by the Parliament, as well as the king, so the king doesn't have full control.

    English parliament would not react good because nobles get more power and the king loses some.

    i think that the English Parliament would react very badly to one controlling ruler, because they would be giving a lot of power to the nobles which takes away the kings power

  16. i do not think they would react well to a controlling ruler because they would be sharing power with the lower class people and that means the more upper class people wouldnt have as much power which would create a problem

    Because the English Parliament is a result of the Magna Carta, I don't think they would react positively to a controlling leader. The parliament would probably react with a plan to overthrow their ruler and regain control of the parliament or replace him with someone who will work with their laws.

  18. If a controlling ruler were to come to power the English Parliament would immediately seek a way to terminate it before the ruler would cause too much damage. Having done so to Edward I 795 years ago, they would do it again to keep the country out of panic and strife.

    I do not think the English Parliament would not welcome a controlling leader. Most likely, the nobles who attempt to over throw the leader and restore order and stability to the government. Because the nobles wrote the Magna Carta in 1215, if they were faced with a ruler who attempted to take control of England, they would have the authority to take the power away from him.

    I do not think the English Parliament would react very well to a controlling ruler. Because the English Parliament was started by the Magna Carta so I think there would big problems between the King and the Nobles over control.

  21. English parliament would react very poorly to a controlling ruler. If parliament didnt agree with the rulers decisions they and would try to overthrow him.

  22. aye my bad on being late, i was having trouble posting.

    I think that the English Parliament always works to keep power in their own hands. A controlling ruler takes much of this power away, that is why the Parliament would resist a controlling ruler. This does not mean outright rebellion. Monarchs are often supported by the church and military powers. The Parliament works in more sneaky, political ways to gain more power.
