The English Bill of Rights limited the monarch's power, strengthened Parliament's role, mandated free elections, and codified rights and liberties for English citizens.
The English Bill of Rights, enacted in 1689, had a significant impact on the political process in England by limiting the power of the monarch and strengthening the role of Parliament.
It mandated free elections for Parliament, ensuring regular representation of the people, and codified certain rights and liberties for English citizens, contributing to the country's path towards democracy.
This document was influenced by Locke's ideas and set out the requirement for regular elections, rules for freedom of speech in Parliament, and limits on the monarch's power, establishing a balance of power in governance.
