Why did parliament pass the coercive acts

After the Boston massacre, the protests did not stop in the city. An organized group of radicals, disguised as indigenous, assaulted ships loaded with tea and threw the product into the sea, this assault was known as "the Boston tea party." This act was the demonstration that the British authorities were being exceeded and that the measures implemented were not having the expected result. The Crown tried to overturn the situation and imposed repressive measures for the colonies, this was carried out through "additional instruction" issued to the governors on February 3, 1774, these new provisions approved by George III, his cabinet and the parliament, were known as "Coercive Laws"
