Explanation:

This is one of the way colonial government differs from the British government. For example, in colonised country, the colonial government would pass a messege on the need for the citizens to pay tax through an edict (forma document) without debating on the reasons while such should be paid. But, the British government would hold series of lectures and debates on the tax topic before it would be adopted.
