All parliamentary restrictions on freedom of speech are counter-intuitive.

As the Bill stands, even after Government concessions, a futureGovernment ,as a result of this Bill would be able to stifle opposition to an unpopular measure introduced in Parliament in the the year before an election.

I'm charitably inclined to think that the worst aspects of the Bill were incorporated by accident.

It is a dangerous step forward when prganisations or people cannot express opinions . We have lost so many freedoms in the UK we must not lose the right to lobby.

I'm sick of our governments thinking they can do as they wish and no-one will complain, guess what, we will.

The proposals as they stand would help further to concentrate power in a small class of professional politicians and their advisers and do virtually nothing to curb lobbying and the buying of influence by commercial organisations and rich people who wish to have a disproportionate influence on our plolitics

Charities as well any individuals must be free to comment upon any proposals made by Government at anytime. Any restriction is a weakening of our democracy and must be resisted
