PLEASE HELP I GIVE BRAINLY
An excerpt from a speech in Parliament in 1775 by an Englishman who opposed Britain’s policy toward the colonies is given below. Base your answer to the following questions on this excerpt.

I speak, Sir, as a firm friend to England and America, but still more to universal liberty and the rights of all mankind. I trust no part of the subjects of this vast empire will ever submit to be slaves. I am sure the Americans are too high-spirited to brook the idea. Your whole power, and that of your allies… cannot effect so wicked a purpose. The conduct of the present administration has already wrested the scepter of America out of the hands of our sovereign, and he has now scarcely even a post master left in the whole northern continent. More than half the empire is already lost, and almost all the rest in confusion and anarchy.

A)He wants to inflame Parliament against the colonists.
B)He wants to convince Britain that it is in their best interests to give up the colonies.
C)He wants to incite the British to revolt.
