England's treatment of the colonies changed after the Glorious Revolution. A new king was instated who set forth more restricting policies on colonists.
It depends on whom you ask. The British would say that colonists had no right at all to leave the empire. They viewed their colonists as being ungrateful brats with a pee-pants attitude. They came to this conclusion after the French and Indian war. The British paid heavily with their lives, and with their money to defeat the French and expand their empire in North America. They expected the colonists to help them pay for the expenses through taxation. The colonists were angered by all of the taxes, and the continued presence of British Red Coats after the war was over. The colonists felt justified in leaving the empire because they strongly believed in "no taxation without representation." The British Parliament had no colonial representitives in it, nor did they want colonial representitives.
There was no official change in territory or policies.
Britain changed its salutary neglect approach toward the colonies because of the debt they had incurred as a result of the French and Indian War. Many in Parliament believed the colonists hadn't paid their fair share of the war costs. As a result, they levied a series of taxes on the colonies, hoping to ease their financial burden.
The British at the time were demeaning and demanding of the colonies. They would tax the colonies with tariffs and give the colonists little say in what their government should be like. Over time the anger built up, protests surged, the Boston massacre enraged citizens, battles such as the Battle of Bunker hill were won and lost. On July, 4 1776 the Declaration of Independence was adopted, this declared America independent from Britain

Colonist did only one thing to get the British to change their policies. The only thing they did was write the British letters.
The colonists boycotted British goods in an attempt to not only boost their own economy, but to show Britain how important the colonies were. The colonists hoped the impact of their boycott on the British economy would rally British merchants to their cause while showing Parliament how important the colonies were.
