Timeline

1934

Johannes Gerardus Hendrikus "Hans" Janmaat (3 November 1934 – 9 June 2002) was a Dutch businessman and politician of the Centre Party (CP) who later founded the Centre Democrats (CD).

Although he was widely known, he was never a major force in the Dutch political landscape, partly because of a cordon sanitaire imposed by Prime Minister Ruud Lubbers's third cabinet.

Johannes Gerardus Hendrikus Janmaat was born on 3 November 1934 in Nes aan de Amstel in North Holland, as the oldest of nine children in a traditional Roman Catholic family.

His father was a salesman and insurance broker.

When Janmaat was 4 years old, the family moved to Gouda, where it would endure the war years in relative peace.

1954

After graduating in 1954, Janmaat started a study in aeronautical engineering, but had to drop out two years later after his father could no longer afford the tuition fees.

Having to give up his studies to work was the first of many setbacks he would often refer to later in life.

1960

In the early 1960s, Janmaat ran a furniture factory with two of his brothers, but it burned down in 1966.

He used the insurance payout to study politicology at the University of Amsterdam.

Fellow-students found him ambitious, provocative and witty.

1966

In 1966 he married Belgian Evi Hock, having met her while working in Germany.

1969

In 1969, he participated in the occupation of the Maagdenhuis, the university's administrative center, as part of a student protest.

1970

In the 1970s, he became more interested in the emerging issue of immigration as large numbers of foreign workers came to the Netherlands.

His increasingly radical stance lead to a break with the KVP as well as DS'70.

1972

He completed his studies in 1972.

After graduating, Janmaat held part-time positions as a teacher of civics.

He also ran a one-man consultancy for small businesses.

In 1972, he joined the Catholic People's Party (KVP).

He also worked in several commissions for the Democratic Socialists '70 (DS'70) party.

Despite his efforts, he was not considered suitable for a front line position because of his capriciousness and tendency to go against the grain.

1979

In 1979, they divorced.

1980

In 1980, he read an article in Vrij Nederland which drew his attention to the recently founded extreme-right Centre Party (CP).

After several interviews, he joined the party as its seventh member.

1982

Starting as a publicity worker, he would rapidly rise to be the party's top and was its lijsttrekker (top candidate) for the 1982 elections.

The party won a single seat in the House of Representatives, which went to Janmaat.

Other political parties largely ignored and ostracized him.

1984

After disagreements and a power struggle with other members of the Centrum Party, he was expelled from the CP in October 1984.

However, he retained his seat in parliament, in accordance with Dutch law.

Janmaat officially launched his own party, the Centre Democrats (CD) in November 1984.

Politically, the party did not differ greatly from the CP, except that it was strongly centered around Janmaat, to prevent another power struggle.

Several attempts were made to reconcile the differences between CP and CD.

One such meeting in a hotel in Kedichem was disrupted by left-wing activists, who set fire to the building.

Janmaat narrowly escaped with his life, CD secretary (and later wife of Janmaat) Wil Schuurman lost a leg because of injuries sustained jumping out of a window to escape the fire.

1986

In the 1986 election, Janmaat lost his seat in parliament, however he regained his single seat in 1989.

1994

His biggest political success would be in the 1994 elections, when he gained three seats.

Major political parties changed their response to Janmaat and his views: rather than actively ignoring him they also started openly addressing the issue of immigration.

1996

In 1996, Janmaat married Wil Schuurman.

No children were born in either marriage.

1998

In the 1998 election the CD lost all three of its seats.

Janmaat had become increasingly paranoid and said that computers used for voting had been tampered with.
