Rejected petition Food parcels Delivered and played for by the goverment
At this time there are ten's of thousands of people losing work this putting strain on familys. At the very least every single person should be able to eat.
No person should have to worry about eating and right now that is starting to become a mayor worry.

The government should not only look to provide funding for business that are losing money due to the covid-19 but also look at the bare basic needs of the british people.
Every person should be able to wake up in the morning and eat. The government are requesting people go out only for bare necessity. Well with a population of 66 million this is going to be hard nearly every body needs to do food shopping which many of them can't. To help the lock down and people in need supply food parcels
