Maharey muck-up?

Just watching an interview with Steve Maharey and Wayne Mapp. Maharey has caused a stink by giving a $200 donation to a fund which was set up to assist the locked out/ striking Progressive Enterprise workers. Mapp says he is taking sides. Maharey says he is helping to feed his constituent's kids. And he really should have given more and he would do it again.

It's Maharey's money. He's given it voluntarily. Seems to me it's a better solution than having his constituents down at the WINZ office looking for handouts. For once I think I might be in sympathy with Mr Maharey.

call me cynical but it all comes from the same place, which means it's still a hand-out, only it's being handed out by a different pair of hands.

Is that deductable?
