Michel Daerden

Michel Daerden (16 November 1949 – 5 August 2012) was a francophone Belgian politician, a member of the ''Parti Socialiste'', and a finance auditor.

Daerden was born in Baudour, Belgium. With a reputation as a 'bon vivant', his undenied penchant for a drink (especially Pomerol) led him to be nicknamed "the Gainsbourg of Belgian Politics" both by himself in a famous TV interview and by Belgium's much respected weekly news magazine ''Le Vif/L'Express''.
