All of the given choices are correct. The British Parliament, though favoring the arrival of William and Mary, did not wish their reappearance under the laws of the absolute monarchy. A file called the Declaration of Rights was delivered to the king and queen before they were given the throne in 1689. That year, Parliament formalized the document naming it as the English Bill of Rights. It asserted the following:
Parliament would choose who ruled the country.
The ruler would be subject to parliamentary laws and could not announce or suspend any law.
The ruler could not enforce taxes or uphold an army in peacetime without Parliament's consent.
Parliament would meet often, and the ruler could not obstruct with the election of its members.
The Bill of Rights assured free speech for members of Parliament.
It also secure private citizens. Any citizen could request the government for reprieve of injustice. No citizen could be involuntary to pay unfairly high bail or face cruel or unusual sentence.
