The tea act
Because a newer leader, named Lord North, saw that the British weren't gaining any money from the acts. so early in 1770, he convinced the Parliament to repeal all of the Townshend Acts, except for one, the tax on tea.
On 5 March 1770-ironically the same day as the Boston Massacre-Lord North, the new Prime Minister, presented a motion in the House of Commons that called for partial repeal of the Townshend Revenue Act. Although some in Parliament advocated a complete repeal of the act, North disagreed, arguing that the tea duty should be retained to assert "the right of taxing the Americans". After debate, the Repeal Act received the Royal Assent on 12 April 1770.
