GinnyAnswer
The political idea central to all the provisions of the Bill of Rights is:

B. limits on the power of the monarchy

Explanation:
1. The provisions listed in the question all emphasize restrictions placed on the power of the monarchy.
2. These restrictions aim to prevent the monarchy from exercising absolute authority and ensure that its power is limited by laws and parliamentary consent.
3. By outlining what the monarch cannot do without parliamentary approval, these provisions establish checks and balances on the monarch's authority.
4. This concept of limiting the power of the monarchy is a fundamental principle reflected in the Bill of Rights to protect the rights and liberties of the subjects from potential abuse of power by the monarchy.
