Talk:Confirmation of Charters

3rd Party Coverage
Third party coverage of this is rather lacking. I can't find anything other than direct copies of the decree and the preceeding Parliament act. - Rushyo  Talk  15:36, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

I do not understand how it can be asserted that the Confirmation acknowledged a right of Parliament to tax. Historically, it was surely simply an expedient agreed to by the king to avoid aggravating a volatile situation involving the peers of the realm. Confirming the liberties of the Great Charter by the king was nothing other than that and had no binding effect whatsoever upon succeeding generations or future kings. That is why it merits so little space in histories of England during the later middle ages. Oakeshott (talk) 21:34, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Have edited with references to resolve these problems. But is it enough to merit its own article, perhaps it should be merged with Magna Carta article?--Utinomen (talk) 20:45, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
