Step-by-step explanation:

The phrase taxation without representation describes a populace that is required to pay taxes to a government authority without having any say in that government's policies. The term has its origin in a slogan of the American colonials against their British rulers: "Taxation without representation is tyranny."1. I hope this helped

It means that Parliament had to pass all taxes. It describes a populace that is required to pay taxes to a government authority without having any day in that government’s policies. The term has its origin in a slogan of the American Colonials against their British rulers : “Taxation without Representation is tyranny!”
