The Grand Remonstrance was a list of grievances presented to King Charles I of England by the English Parliament on 1 December 1641, but passed by the House of Commons on 22 November 1641, during the Long Parliament.[1] It was one of the chief events which was to precipitate the English Civil War.[2]
