Lobbyist for the ‘little people’?

David Earnshaw, the Managing Director of the Brussels office of Burson-Marsteller subsidiary BKSH & Associates, has rejected calls for stricter regulation of European Union lobbyists preferring self-regulation instead. "If you regulate strictly, the people who get hurt are the little people -- the people who do not have a voice -- not the people who can bend the rules," he told the Washington Times. BKSH clients have included GE, Yukos Oil, Ahmed Chalabi and the Iraqi National Congress.
