ELY-Association Against the Misrepresentation of
OLIVER CROMWELL

ELY has a new organisation that believes local hero Oliver Cromwell has had undeserved bad press over the last 400 odd years. To combat this injustice the group of like-minded new model citizens have raised their battle flag under the auspicious banner of The "Ely Association Against the Misrepresentation of Oliver Cromwell".
They will be appearing on BBC TV on the Sunday the 21st March interview by journalist, Jessica Whittaker
(Roger's beautiful Daughter) and will add to their newly created webpage on a regular basis ranting on about individual injustices, all in their own inimitable style > ACCESS THE ELY-AAMOC WEBSITE HERE <

'I'm a monarchist but I believe that the greatest Briton ever was Oliver Cromwell, a Republican revolutionary who killed the King. Why? Because he was an ordinary man with a passion for this country. When Britain stood on the verge of anarchy he emerged from obscurity to help give us Parliamentary democracy - our proudest ever achievement. Not bad for a Fenland farmer.'
