sir, at the end of every paragraph do you have to put a BALANCED opinion about the statement or can it just be what you think? For instance:
I think that Parliament got very lucky not to have lost the first battle of Edgehill, because the Royalists dominated the fight and deserved to have won, and also i think that they got lucky when charles went to Oxford instead of going to where Parliament were going, London.
Could i say that, or do i have to say why the Royalists were lucky aswell so its balanced??

So therefore if Pt were lucky after say Edgehill, they certainly weren't after Naseby....etc |
