what did the slogan “no taxation without representation” mean and why was it rallying cry for the colonists

no taxation without representation meant that parliament should not be able to tax people if they do not have representation on parliament. It was a rallying cry for the colonists because as British colonies Great Britain claimed that members of the British parliament also represent them but they wanted a representative from the colonies who actually knew what the colonists wanted. The crown refused to give them their own representative so they did not want to be taxed.

The slogan ''no taxation without representation” meant that the colonist did not approve of the British putting taxes on essential items. The British put taxes on things such as tea and paper.ect.The colonists believed that as they were not represented and any taxes it imposed on the colonists  were unconstitutional, and were a did not represent the colonists' rights .
