The British were confused and convinced that the reason the opposition to the stamp act had been so strong was because it was an internal tax, originating in the colonies. They felt the Townshend Acts, which they issued upon repeal of the Stamp Act of 1765, would be accepted since it was eternal, originating from Britain. Nothing could have been further from the truth.
