… comrade, everything in the EU is public. Capitalists in parliament are capitalists, their lobby is public:
You are their slave, they are your Masters.
You do not deserve privacy, they do.

No, I was referring to the HLG that helped draft this legislation. We know who in the EU sent out the invitations, but requests to find out who was in the grouo were denied.

This is still (afaik) not public information.

You're citing from a document criticizing the HLG. These are sources for that criticism.

These are not members of the HLG itself.
