Independent MPs

Independent MPs are members of a legislative body who are not affiliated with any political party. They represent their constituents based on individual views rather than a party’s platform. Their role is to provide independent judgment on legislation, contributing diverse perspectives without party influence. Independents can be influential, especially in closely divided parliaments, often negotiating to shape policies or form alliances. They prioritize their constituency's interests and bring a neutral voice to political debates, offering an alternative to party-affiliated MPs.
