The visit of the youngest son of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Jesús Ernesto, to England caused controversy on social networks, not only because of the trip to the European country at a time when the federal president assured that the federal government went from republican austerity to Franciscan poverty, but because of his shoes.
According to Internet users, the footwear that the teenager was wearing has a high cost, more than 18 thousand pesos, the tennis shoes are of the Odsy brand “with an irreverent design belonging to the new SS22 collection. It stands out for its panel design and thick sole, which is instantly recognizable by showing the characteristic Arrows motif on the side”, details the product description.

Between Jesús Ernesto’s 18,000-peso tennis shoes and the first-class ticket from London to Mexico, our austere president has already lost a month’s salary, he’s going to make ends meet, scratching his fortnight like vile godinez

The images of the president’s youngest son were captured in the Aeromexico Premier counter at London Heathrow Airport, where he was accompanied by the Mexican ambassador to the United Kingdom Josefa González-Blanco Ortiz-Mena, who in another of the images can be seen carrying a young man’s suitcase.
The president of Mexico explained that Franciscan poverty in his government consists of “reduce quite a bit, there will be almost no trips abroad, In other words, we are going to ensure that all communication is done by phone or by teleconference, we are going to reduce travel expenses even more and other measures.”

This concept of austerity is based on the work of San Francisco de Asís, its origin dates back to 1208, when he made the decision to lead a life of poverty, which would eventually lead to the founding of the Franciscan orders.
And it has its origin in chapter 10 of the Gospel of Matthew, in which Jesus sends his apostles and instructs them to not to carry “gold, or silver, or money in their bags, or a bag for the journey, or two tunics, no sandals, no cane”.
