Many press cartoonists share their art on Twitter to comment on the news with their biting humour. On the program of this press review: Emmanuel Macron facing the pans of the French. Back on the event of the last few days.
On Monday April 17, Emmanuel Macron addressed the French during a new televised address, several days after the enactment of the pension reform. 15 million listeners gathered to listen to the new announcements of the Head of State, who gives himself 100 days to “act in the service of France”. However, a few die-hard demonstrators took to the streets to boycott the presidential speech.
Everywhere in France, thousands of citizens were armed with their saucepans to express their anger in a great national uproar from 8 p.m. In total, more than 370 saucepan concerts have been listed across France by Attac, the association organizing this performance.
After this improvised performance aimed at boycotting the president’s speech, the latter went to Hérault this week for a visit to Ganges. While some residents wanted to welcome the Head of State to the sound of pans, the prefect of Hérault had banned any kind of utensil that could create a racket around the town.
Who of the presidential majority or the orchestra of saucepans will win this confrontation? To arbitrate this match, the designers did not fail to react in the newspapers and on social networks. Focus in pictures on the press cartoons of the week below.
