Democratisch Podium was een lokale Dongense partij met kernwaarden en uitgangspunten die vergelijkbaar waren met die van D66. Waaronder bestuurlijke vernieuwing, inwonerbetrokkenheid, duurzaamheid, gelijkwaardigheid en uitgaan van eigen kracht van mensen. Voor deze partij werd Bas in 2010 wethouder met de portefeuilles: economische zaken en innovatie, milieu, onderwijs, cultuur, sport, bestuurlijke vernieuwing, inwonerparticipatie, communicatie en dienstverlening. Democratisch Podium heeft niet meer meegedaan aan de verkiezingen van 2018 en is later opgehouden te bestaan. In 2016 is Bas als bestuurslid in het bestuur van D66 Noord-Brabant gekomen. Daarnaast werd hij voorzitter van de permanente programma commissie (PPC) met de focus op de Statenverkiezingen. In 2022 stond Bas op de lijst van de Ouderenpartij voor Dongen en kwam met voorkeursstemmen in de gemeenteraad. Bas is later in diezelfde periode met zijn collega-fractielid als onafhankelijke raadsfractie onder de naam DongenPlus+ verder gegaan.<br><br><strong>Waarom D66?<\/strong><br>D66 wil dat alle mensen in vrijheid hun eigen leven vorm kunnen geven en hun bijdrage aan de samenleving kunnen leveren. Voor mij is de kracht van D66 het streven naar vernieuwing van de politieke instellingen en spelregels, met meer invloed voor mensen, zodat het vertrouwen in de democratische rechtstaat hersteld wordt.<br><br><strong>Wat wil Bas bereiken met D66?<\/strong><br>Juist nu in deze tijd dat de democratische waarden onder druk staan zou ik mijn ervaring als wethouder en raadslid bij D66 graag willen inzetten om vanuit een positieve houding de verbinding met onze inwoners te blijven leggen en te werken aan het herstel van hun vertrouwen in de politiek. Om in te zetten op democratische vernieuwing in de Dongense politiek waarbij het uitgangspunt is dat iedere inwoner in de gelegenheid gesteld wordt om mee te kunnen praten en mee te denken over beleid en besluiten van de gemeente Dongen, of over andere onderwerpen die hem of haar direct of indirect raken. Democratie is \u00e9cht samendoen.\t<\/p><section class=\"people-bullet-point-card block-people-introduction__people-bullet-point-card\" style=\"--bg-color: var(--global-colors-yellow)\">\n\t<div class=\"people-bullet-point-card__wrapper\">\n\t\t<div class=\"people-bullet-point-card__title\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"heading    heading__font--sans heading__weight--bold\" id=\"nav-over-bas793\" data-nav-heading-mobile=\"Over Bas\">\n\tOver Bas<\/h2>\t\t\t<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"people-bullet-point-card__border\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"people-bullet-point-card__info\">\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"lists\">\n\t\t\t\t<li><label>Leeftijd<\/label><span>74 jaar<\/span><\/li>\t\t\t\t<li><label>Geboorteplaats<\/label><span>Zundert<\/span><\/li>\t\t\t\t<li><label>Woonplaats<\/label><span>Dongen<\/span><\/li>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section><p class=\"paragraph paragraph__align--left paragraph__color--black paragraph__size--default\">\n\t\t\t<\/p><div class=\"content-accordion js-content-accordion\" data-accordion-opened=\"0\">\n\n\t\n\t<button id=\"content-accordion-trigger-1549908625\" class=\"content-accordion__trigger js-content-accordion-trigger\" aria-label=\"Functie historie\" aria-controls>\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__heading\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"heading   heading__size--medium heading__font--sans heading__weight--bold\" id=\"nav-functie-historie2971\">\n\tFunctie historie<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n\t<\/button>\n\n\t<section id=\"content-accordion-panel-1549908625\" class=\"content-accordion__panel js-content-accordion-panel\" aria-hidden=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"content-accordion-trigger-1549908625\">\n\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content-accordion__description\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"content-accordion lists content-accordion__lists lists__weight--medium lists__color--black lists__type--default\"><li><label>2010 &#8211;
