Ban Supermarket delivery charges during a global pandemic.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Those on the breadline are significantly more disadvantaged. Banning Supermarket delivery charges during a Global pandemic should be enforced. Supermarkets are densely packed Nationally with huge profits, therefore are well situated to assist the Global effort in promoting reduced exposure risk.
Traveling for food shopping is permitted during a global pandemic which makes supermarkets areas of mass gathering, therefore the risk needs reduced. Banning supermarket delivery charges during a global pandemic assists leveling up for financially disadvantaged as well as minimises exposure risk. Supermarkets are densely packed with huge profits and are well placed to do more during a global pandemic.
