A 2% approval rating!

The BBC reports:

The president of Peru, Dina Boluarte, has issued a decree doubling her salary despite having a historically low approval rating of only 2%.

She will now be paid more than 35,500 soles ($10,000; £7,300) per month.

I thought this was a typo, but it isn’t.

She is on a 2% approval rating and just doubled her salary. It was around 20 times the average income and is now 40 times the average income!

She was, of course, elected to Parliament as a Marxist!
