The British Prime Minister who had Parliament enact laws that taxed lead was George Grenville. He served from 1763 to 1765 and is best known for the Stamp Act of 1765 and other revenue-generating measures aimed at offsetting the costs of British troops in North America, including taxes on goods like lead. His policies contributed to growing tensions between Britain and its American colonies.
