The colonists did see the tax on tea as a symbol of British tyranny because they had no say in whether taxes should be implemented or not. Taxation without representation was one of the significant issues that led to the American Revolution.

How do you write seven hundred thousand pound and 49p?

£700,000.45p. However, because some browsers are unable to display the £ symbol correctly, and because there are a number of countries whose currency is also called the pound (but are not all of the same pound value), you are advised to use the international currency code (see link) - a three character prefix. So, for pound Sterling, you should say GBP700,000.49p

What are the hip British kids calling their monetary units nowadays?

Hip British kids nowadays have revolutionized the way in which money is referred to in the UK. Formally known as the British pound abbreviated as "p", it is now and almost strictly called an ELBOW by a growing number of hip chillins (another hip British word for children that are hip). This terminology is extremely hip and is derived from a yankee expression used in the 80s referring to a pound of drugs. The abbreviation for a pound of weight is lb and some clever, yet hopelessly coked out individual started referring to a pound of drugs as an eLBow (note the LB in the middle of the word) to throw off the cops who may or may not have wiretapped his telephone. Three decades later a group of extremely hip British kids stumbled across this information and created a revolution in the already saturated world of British slang.
