But the whole premise is that those paid professionals have gone rogue?

There's really no fixing that kind of failure state with a bandage solution. The whole idea of a representative democracy is premised on citizens being able to elect representatives who represent their interests. If that's not holding then that's the part that needs to be fixed.

A political party can table any motion they want and other political parties will vote against it. That is not going rogue it is doing your job.
