About Yvette Laclé
Born 1955. Yvette Laclé is a Dutch politician.
Yvette Laclé (born 25 August 1955) until early 2009 known as Yvette Lont(-Eersel), is a former Dutch local politician for the ChristianUnion (ChristenUnie) and later as an independent one in Amsterdam from 2002 to 2008. A reformed prostitute and drug addict, Laclé caused considerable controversy in 2007 when she suggested that gay men should be sexually abstinent and leave mainstream LGBT culture.
In 2002, she was elected a member of the district council of Amsterdam Southeast. In 2006 she was re-elected. By 2007, Laclé had married, and had begun assisting drug addicts, alcoholics and prostitutes, encouraging them to start a new life through the Op de Rots foundation, of which she is director. As a result of the controversy, in 2010 Laclé founded her own political party, the Evangelische Partij Nederland (Evangelical Party of the Netherlands), but with just 942 votes failed to gain a seat in the elections.
