Weren`t the Stuarts reinstituted as absolute monarchs after the death of Oliver Cromwell?
If any revolution was to be given credit for bringing more democracy to the UK then it is the "Orange revolution" which was more of military coup than a revolution. Other than that, the parlaiment and it`s powers after that military coup had it`s powers as restricted as other national essemplies throughout the continent, with the difference that the other national essemplies sooner or later found their heads rolling.
