Scenes of confinement: better to laugh about it!

Editorial published on April 02, 2020

For most of us, we have been living for several weeks within four walls, and it is clear that this new way of life is contrary to our human nature.
This is a tragic and anxiety-provoking time to take a step back and make a mockery of our confined life. The humour of our cartoonists is always there to help us get through the ordeal.
