Answer:

right against taxation without representation

Step-by-step explanation:

The English Bill of Rights of 1689 was made by the The Parliament of England as part of their government reformation that transitioned from Monarchy into a more Democratic form of Government.

Before this bill of right was created, the Crown forced the colonists to pay taxes from the sales of various products that traded in united states. Which cut off a large chunk of the their profit.

The parliament suggested that this was a very Immoral practice. They believe that in order to force a certain group to pay taxes to the Crown, those group of people need to be granted with the right to elect their own people into the English Government. This elected person will represent the colonist' view to the British Government and influenced the type of law that can be passed to the colony on a fairer term.
