Michel Durafour: "Mitterrand est indispensable à la gauche"

Description

A l'occasion du 15 e anniversaire de la mort de François Mitterrand, Michel Durafour, ce personnage politique atypique né le 11 avril 1920 à Saint-Etienne, premier ministre d'ouverture de François Mitterrand, ministre d'Etat, Ministre de la Fonction publique de 1989 à 1991 se souvient d'un grand homme politique. S'il a quitté la vie politique, il garde toujours un œil sur celle-ci. Il pense encore aujourd'hui que Mitterrand est indispensable à la gauche comme symbole. En cas de face à face en 2012 entre Sarkozy et DSK, il donne le représentant du PS en tête. Il n'a pas oublié l'insulte de Jean-Marie Le Pen à son encontre et n'a jamais compris pourquoi on a fait autant de publicité à un tel homme. "Durafour-crématoire" est un jeu de mot simple et facile à faire. Reportage: Damien Lepetitgaland
