"If you have an issue with the tea taxes please direct your concerns to your representative in the house of lords"
Did colonists get to vote on their representative every 2 years? No? Ok, not the same then.
It should be noted that the colonies did have their fair share of English apologists. Thank you for offering up an example that can be used in the present day.
While "ack-shu-ally" history does not repeat itself - it does tend to rhyme.
Feel free to explain how anything I've said qualifies as being an "apologist".
