They were sixteen ministers in Algeria this weekend. A semi-government to bring gas by sea, while some of the French could no longer find gas at the local service station. A brutal image of state ineptitude. There were faint signals, but our rulers, no matter how anxious they were to detect the slightest beginnings of a social movement since the “yellow vests,” saw nothing. Worse still, in an odd response to the pandemic and the lack of a “mask shortage”, Olivier Veran denied the obvious, confirming that this time it was for the essence that “there is no shortage”. Lack of waiting. Go out? It is certain that liquid-mobility metropolitan France is less dependent on the gas pump than the rest of the country. For the first, it is a concern for leisure (weekends, vacations), for the second (three quarters of the French), a vital necessity. We do not go from Bessa-le-Fromental to Saint-Amand-Montreux by electric scooter
