How did the british react after the colonists held their second continental congress?

After the Second Continental Congress the British rejected the colonists' petition, seeing it as insincere, and the king rejected any possibility of independence for the colonies in America

Explanation:

At the Second Continental Congress of July 8, 1775, the Americans sent a petition to the English king asking him to reverse the harsh policies of his ministers over the colonies. But the parliament rejected the petition, seeing it as insincere. The parliament then voted a motion to impose a naval blockade on the Thirteen Colonies. It is stipulated that the popularity of the war in the UK reached its peak in 1777. The king himself took more control of the situation with him leading the war effort, despite opposition from some politicians to this, such as Prime Minister North and the civilian leaders of the military. The king rejected any possibility of independence for the colonies in America.
