Answer:

they should have a representative in Parliament.

Step-by-step explanation:

The colonists had no representative in the English parliament, nor were they allowed to choose an American representative, who could work on behalf of the American colonies and defend the rights of the colonists. However, all settlers were required to pay taxes to the British government, that is, they paid taxes to a government that did not allow fair representation, for this reason, they declared "No taxation without representation," which meant that they did not they would pay taxes if they were not represented in parliament.
