	Anthony Babington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anthony Babington (October 24, 1561 – September 20, 1586) was convicted of plotting the assassination of Elizabeth I of England and conspiring with the imprisoned Mary I of Scotland.
		The "Babington Plot" and Mary's alleged involvement in it were the basis of the treason charges against her which led to her execution.
		Babington's (and Mary Stuart's) defenders claim that in the sixteenth century it was believed that the killing of tyrants was morally acceptable.

	Babington Plot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anthony Babington recruited a Catholic named Gilbert Gifford who had been trained as a priest and was known to Mary to pass messages to and from the Scottish queen.
		In July 1586, Babington proposed to Mary that Elizabeth be assassinated, and he referred to an invasion by Spain — King Philip II had promised to send a military expedition to England when Queen Elizabeth was no longer in power, and had a plan for Mary's release from her imprisonment.
		Babington received the forged postscript and message, but he never replied with the names of the conspirators, as he was arrested while seeking a passport in order to see King Philip of Spain.

		Young Babington belonged to a well-off Anglo-Irish family, but his father was ruined financially and died in 1930 leaving the mother to raise her children on slender means.
		The Swinging Sixties were in full boom, and Babington was soon in the public eye of a storm when he had to decide a moral issue of national importance: whether "a female who fully exposed her breasts in a public place was committing a criminal offence".
		Babington continued into the new millennium to campaign with others for an official gesture of rethinking, in the form of a retrospective pardon for men convicted by clearly prejudiced and incompetent courts.

		English conspirator, son of Henry Babington of Dethick in Derbyshire, and of Mary, daughter of George, Lord Darcy, was born in October 1561, and was brought up secretly a Roman Catholic.
