the question if from the boston tea party>"no taxation without representation" was often shouted by angry colonists. What does this phrase mean

Answer 1

It means the colonists were forced to pay different taxes, but they had no one to represent them in the British government. Needless to say, they were opposed to this situation. It's made very clear in the Declaration of Independence.
