mais avec moderation

"just the one". Pic Dominique Faget/AFP
All alcohol advertisements carry a health warning : "a consommer avec moderation" - a sensible precaution one might think. But with the worrying rise in alcohol related illness and delinquency there are calls for this to be beefed up.
President Macron acknowledges that there is a problem with young people binge drinking - but puts it down to the rise in popularity of spirits and beer. Not wine. He said there are no plans to strengthen the restraints on advertising especially with wine. He said it does not pay to "piss off the French people". He drinks wine at both midday and evening as do so many of his countrymen, with moderation, obviously.
