Opportunities
- Yorkist opportunities - They attempted to raise forces in the North and the Midlands; after it was crushed, they realised that they needed a figurehead, such as a pretender/Yorkist Prince.
- Henry's opportunities - laws were altered so that anyone who committed treason could not take up sanctuary.
|
Threats
- All three people involved thrived under Yorkist rule and despised the Tudors.
- They had been in sanctuary since the Battle of Bosworth.
