@Bentlyal, I agree that politician could help , look at New Zealand , the whole of government took a reduction of 30% in salaries to help others less fortunate. In contrast in UK they have an increase of 11% to their highly paid wages, while NHS , etc had 1% increase. And of course huge number of people on breadline. Tells you something about Caring as opposed to greedy corrupt governments.
It would have been great if there was a donation link so those who could not get to the food bank could donate money and those in charge could purchase the food. I for one would have donated even though I do not live in Balearic but have family there.
why don't the politicians give up their salaries for the food bank and people suffering ? They haven't been affected and looking around Europe most politicians that opted for perpetual lockdowns have earned more from working at home!!! politicians hand over or give up your salaries as you have not been affected unlike the population. Scandalous!!! A public inquiry needs to be carried out after this corona rona flu virus flutters away
