Jean-Marie Louis Dedecker is a Belgian politician and former National judo coach. From 1999 to 2006 he was a member of the VLD (Flemish Liberals). After a very brief membership of the N-VA (New Flemish Alliance) at the end of 2006, he founded Lijst Dedecker LDD (Libertarian Party) in early 2007, for which he sat in parliament until 2014. Since then, the party only has a local branch in Middelkerke, where Dedecker became mayor in 2019. That same year, he was re-elected to parliament as an independent MP on the N-VA list.
