The group that believed the colonists were adequately represented in Parliament was the Loyalists, or Tories. They argued that the colonists had virtual representation, meaning that Parliament represented the interests of all British subjects, regardless of their geographic location. Loyalists maintained that the interests of the colonies were considered in parliamentary decisions, and thus, they opposed the idea of direct representation. This belief contributed to their support for British governance during the American Revolution.
