1. They did not have a say in laws or taxes that were passed.

Explanation: Colonists demanded that they should be given representation in the parliament if they had to be charged with taxes that affected their lives. They insisted that they should be allowed to have a say in the framing of taxes imposed on them, for which, they emphasized on not giving taxes as long as they are not given representation in the British parliament.

It was going to be possible for them to oppose the imposition of such taxes in the first place only if they got seats in the parliament as that was where the decisions regarding the imposition of taxes and duties were made.
