The Boston Tea Party caused considerable property damage and infuriated the British government. Parliament responded with the Coercive Acts of 1774, which colonists came to call the Intolerable Acts.

Answer:

Explanation: The Parliament responded to the protests against the Tea Law with repressive laws that were called The Intolerable Acts but which were also known as Coercive or Punitive Acts, which consisted of a series of punishable precepts with which they sought to punish the settlers for the launch of a shipment of tea in 1764.
