What happened in room M1 was that Mr Coyle, or King Coyle, as he was called, was a tyrant. He taxed us for almost everything. He taxed us for denim, jewellery, sport shoes and orthodontic work, so braces and retainers. This is very unfair, because you can’t take braces off while denim, jewellery and shoes can be removed. The way Mr. Coyle treated us was almost the same way that the king of England king George III treated the colonists. King George III taxed almost everything, like the Quartering Act and the Townshend Act. He even taxed their tea! The King of England was unjust. The colonists were very determined to gain their own rights. They wanted self-determination. It wasn’t so fun when you didn’t have enough money to pay your taxes, and the only way to get more money was to go to Georgia and work. If you did something wrong, you committed “treason”, which in other words meant detention.
