What about......and hear me out. We dont give lobbyists unfettered access to parliament at all, then we dont have to name them.

You sound like a radical who is trying to destroy the system and plunge us into chaos… How dare you!

Apparently it doesn't take much in this political climate to come across that way. LOL

Lobbyists, if they must exist, should be fully public with their names and office addresses available along with the amount they spend and who provides the money and who does it go to. Lobbyists need accountability.
