Plastic is durable and will ensure that electric current does not pose a threat to anyone. Papers may get torn thus leaving the wires exposed. A piece of cloth can also get wet and become a hazard as it will allow electric current to flow through it.
well if there is a spark or a power surge, then the spark could ignite the cloth or paper. plus the plastic not only protect the wires from rain, rats (mostly), etc., it doesn't conduct electricity so you can handle the wires without electrocuting yourself. :)

The cloth will acquire a negative charge. Rubbing the plastic rod transfers electrons from the rod to the cloth, leaving the cloth with an excess of electrons, giving it a negative charge.
When a plastic rod is rubbed with a silk cloth, electrons are transferred from the silk to the plastic rod. This results in the plastic rod becoming negatively charged and the silk cloth becoming positively charged. This effect is known as triboelectric charging.
Well that is a vague question that really depends on what kind of cloth you are referring to, what kind of plastic bag and what you define as a bunch.

When a plastic rod is rubbed with a cloth, the plastic rod gains a static electric charge. This charge is due to the transfer of electrons between the rod and the cloth, creating an imbalance of positive and negative charges on the rod's surface.

When it comes to moving breakables, you have several options. Foam packing material is a good option, but also using plastic bubbles and even wrapping your breakables in cloth or newspaper are viable options as well.
Air generally goes through cloth faster than plastic. This is because cloth is usually more porous and allows for more airflow, while plastic is more likely to be a barrier to airflow due to its denser structure.
It is hard to find truly environmentally responsible Christmas wrapping paper. Perhaps consider using cloth wrap instead, or reusing paper that you already have?
