Best Answer

Charles got off to a bad start as a king because in 1625 Charles married a french catholic princess, Henrietta Maria.(this was very unpopular with parliament)

In 1626 Parliament tried to punish him for bungling a naval expedition against Spain.

Charles sent two MPs to prison because of this.

Then there was the question of money. When a new King or Queen came to the throne Parliament usually voted to give the monarch the income from customs duties for life but when Charles became king parliament voted to grant him the customs duties for only one year.They were trying to force him to call Parliament regularly.But Charles carried on collecting the duties anyway,without parliaments permission.
