Oliver Cromwell Lord Protector of England
Here’s a dramatization of Cromwell’s speech dissolving the Rump Parliament, from the eponymous biographical movie. The speech is somewhat different than the one I quoted, but Richard Harris gives a convincing portrayal. The speech starts around the 2 minute mark: start watching from about 1:30 to get an illustration of the dissoluteness of the Parliament.
And for those who want some biographical detail on Cromwell, here you go!:
Oliver Cromwell would likely take a very dim view of the Chavs abd Yobs. However, he might provide a father figure for these poor mistreated youths that they have sadly lacked and suffered horribly because of.
