TRUTH !!


Oliver Cromwell was first elected as a Member of Parliament in England in


1628. After successful military campaigns against the Royalists, he had


further campaigns in Ireland and Scotland. In 1653, he was made Lord


Protector of the newly formed Commonwealth of England and remained in this


position until his death in 1658. He was an extremely religious man and


believed that feasting and revelry on Christmas Day was immoral and so


persuaded Parliament to ban it along with all celebration of the day.





The law wasn't repealed until 1660, two years after Cromwell's death .
