On December 6, 2021, Prime Minister Jean Castex announced new restrictive measures to counter the resurgence of Covid-19 in France. Among the measures announced, the closing of nightclubs for a period of 4 weeks and from Friday December 10. On the other hand, bars and restaurants remain open with the sole instruction to strengthen the control of health passes. The police should also control more widely.
This announcement was then inevitably much criticized by the managers of nightclubs, for whom it had the effect of a new blow of the club. Injustice and incomprehension are often the key words of their testimonies since the speech by Jean Castex. A feeling that we share Cedric Lucas, himself boss of a club in Paris. He was also invited to share his anger on the set of Do not touch My TV this Tuesday, December 7. The opportunity to discover that it was a former candidate of Koh Lanta ! Indeed, Cédric has participated twice in the survival program. A first time in 2015 in Malaysia then again in the All Stars edition in 2018 in Fiji.
But with Cyril Hanouna and his team, Cédric has not at all returned to his journeys on deserted islands or even to the cheating cases that have shaken the program in recent weeks. He was invited only to talk about the big drag that the government places on him in his career as a nightclub manager. “Why stigmatize the nightclub while you have the bars and restaurants, which do not control the health pass with the identity document, so there is even more risk of creating clusters. There are already clandestine parties being set up, you also have people who have parties at their homes. So basically, we close nightclubs to send people home and have underground parties. It does not make sense ! There is no logic in fact“, he lamented.
