The day before, Emmanuel Macron’s trip to Bas-Rhin had been disrupted by demonstrators banging pots. While he was visiting a factory in the wood industry in Muttersholtz, the electricity had been cut off by trade unionists. “It’s not the saucepans that will move the country forward”, he said at the end of this visit. An hour later, the President of the Republic was greeted with boos and whistles in front of the town hall of Sélestat, some demonstrators asking him to withdraw his pension reform and even to resign.
