Uk and China

So 2 people have been suspended from the uk parliament for alleged spying

So why is this seen as a massive attack on our democracy but lobbying by businesses or even having an MP on the tories who sold information to Israel, yet again more double standards

So my question is should lobbying be banned as well as any MP whos been found guilty of a crime

Please be sensible no hate

If they took that move in the Canadian parliament, I bet half the seats would be vacated. Politicians of all parties tend to make shady deals with questionable partners. Unfortunately, lobbying is part of most democratic processes to ensure access to the government.
Just my take!

@Yourguyinthecity im not saying the opposition are innocent i just mean in general in parliament

The problem is parliament is not working in the interests for the people but for business

Also most in parliament they have more than one job so they are eaisly approachable has been found out recebly some MPs quoting 10k to help a business or corporation
