Who do you think was the worst king of England (or Great Britain, in light of our previous thread). I'm thinking it may have been either King John, whose actions led to the creation of the Magna Carta, or King Henry VIII. Does anyone else have an opinion about a monarch?
Edward “The Long Shanks” gets my vote. 🙂 I guess the William Wallace fanboyism is coming out. 😉
Interesting query, but have you considered modern times? Just wondering.
Henry VIII jumps immediately to mind although Henry II did quite a bit to lose the English possessions in France, so did the Lionheart through his neglect of his royal duties while on Crusade and on his way back.
