The treatment of the corpses
Cromwell's corpse had been embalmed and wrapped in cloth after the post - mortem. It was dug up along with those of his son in law Henry Ireton and John Bradshaw, who had been the judge at the trial of King Charles. The bodies were removed from Westminster Abbey on 26th January 1661. Four days later, on the anniversary of the execution of Charles I they were dragged to Tyburn. They were hung from the gallows all day before being taken down and having the heads severed from the bodies. It took more than one blow to remove Cromwell's head.
Eyewitness accounts
There are several descriptions of the events of 30th January 1661. A merchant, Samuel Sainthill wrote...
"they were hanged by the neck from morning. Cromwell in a green seare cloth, very fresh embalmed; Ireton....hung like a dried rat"

Tell them to bugger off.
How did we get into a position where the EU is now running the UK budget? Heath, Major, Blair and Brown should be strung up for treason.

Is that the same EU whose auditors have refused to sign off the bloc's financial accounts for the 13th year in a row.
The auditors say there are weaknesses across the board and complain of neglect and presumed attempts at fraud.
