William III of England : Did he invade England?

by zoobius

Hello folks. I've been having a debate with a colleague about the above question upon which I'd like to canvas opinions.

The wikipedia entry for this fellow: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_III_of_England

Thank you, in advance, for your reply.

This is an interesting thing to debate, and as such I'm hoping to see some new takes on the subject. In the mean time you may want to read this old comment (and the comment linked therein) by u/SplendourFalls discussing some aspect of the issue.

As a follow up. There were some 5,000 Dutch soldiers in garrisoned in London for something like 5 years after William arrived. What were they guarding against exactly?
