Answer:

The correct answer is He will only approve laws that are in his and Great Britain’s best interest

Step-by-step explanation:

Namely, in the Common Sense practically accused the British ruler that he is not doing anything good in the colonies, as the laws that he was imposing were against the needs of colonists and only could benefit him.

That of course excludes all other options, because he didn-t allow colonies to make their own laws and he especially always put his own interest on the first place.
