Václav Klaus Jr. (Czech: Václav Klaus ml. or mladší, Czech pronunciation: [ˈvaːtslaf ˈklaus (ˈmlat.ʃiː)]; born 10 September 1969) is a Czech teacher and politician. He was a member of the Civic Democratic Party (ODS) until his expulsion in March 2019.[1][2] Klaus was a Member of the Chamber of Deputies (MP) from 2017 to 2021. He is the son of former Czech president Václav Klaus.

Early life and career

Klaus became Headmaster of PORG Grammar School in 1998. During his tenure, the school had the best results in the country in 2011 state graduation exams.[3] He left the school in 2014. He was also an adviser to Education Minister Josef Dobeš (politician) at the time.[4]

Political career

Education adviser to ODS

In March 2014, Klaus became chief education adviser to the Civic Democratic Party (ODS).[5] He was highly critical of Minister of Education Kateřina Valachová, and opposed her changes to the roles of school headmasters. He also opposed inclusion,[6][7] and expressed support for a headteacher who banned the wearing of hijabs in her school.[8]

2017 legislative election

Klaus rejoined ODS in January 2016, having previously been a member from 2002 to 2008.[9]

On 26 September 2016, Klaus announced his intention to participate in the 2017 legislative election.[10] He won the nomination on 26 January 2017, supported by the Prague 6 ODS organisation.[11] He participated in the legislative election in Prague, where he was third on the ODS candidate list,[12] and was elected to the Chamber of Deputies with over 20,000 preferential votes, the second most of all candidates.[13] He subsequently became the chair of the Education Committee.[14]

Although he was suggested by some political commentators – including Petr Honzejk and Martin Zvěřina – as a potential future leader of the party, and possible rival to the incumbent leader, Petr Fiala,[15][16][17] Klaus Jr. became involved in conflicts with the party leadership following his election to the Chamber of Deputies due to his controversial statements and his support for Ladislav Jakl during the 2018 Senate election. This resulted in his expulsion from the party on 16 March 2019.[2][18] Zuzana Majerová also resigned from the party in response to Klaus's expulsion.[19]

Tricolour

Following his expulsion from ODS, Klaus announced that he would found a new party.[20] He introduced the party, the Tricolour Citizens' Movement, at a press conference on 10 June 2019.[21] In March 2021, Klaus Jr. announced his resignation from all political functions for personal reasons.[22]

Center for Civil Liberties

Main article: Center for Civil Liberties (think tank)

In 2017, Klaus founded a think tank, the Center for Civil Liberties, focused on civil liberties, economic issues, and education.[23] Klaus said that his aim is for the institute to compete with the Václav Havel Library.[24]

Personal life

Klaus married his first wife Kamila Pojslová in 1995, with whom he had three children.[25] The couple divorced in 2010, and Klaus married his second wife Lucie Hřebáčková in 2013.[26] They have a daughter named Eliška.[27] On 25 October 2017, Klaus announced a divorce from his second wife.[28] The announcement came only five days after he was elected to parliament, which led to speculation that the divorce was caused by his political activities.[29] Klaus has a congenital cosmetic defect on his face.[30]
