Oliver Cromwell may have called himself the Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland but I can tell you that my Irish relatives don't think he protected anyone but the religious bigots in his inner circle. His merry men did make it all the way to Inishbofin, seven miles off the west coast of Ireland.
