What change in British attitude toward the colonists was suggested by the replacement of Thomas Hutchinson with Thomas Gage?

The replacement of Thomas Hutchinson with Thomas Gage as the governor of Massachusetts suggested a shift in British attitude from conciliatory to more authoritarian. Hutchinson, who had sought to maintain order through compromise, was replaced by Gage, a military leader, indicating a willingness to use force to suppress colonial dissent. This change reflected a growing perception among British officials that stricter control was necessary to manage colonial unrest, particularly in the wake of events like the Boston Tea Party. Ultimately, it signaled an escalation in tensions between Britain and the American colonies.
