Independents 4 Change
Independents 4 Change is an Irish political party.History
The political grouping registered as a political party since 2014. It was previously known as Independents for Equality Movement.
The party adopted its current name in September 2015, after the establishment of the Right2Change electoral alliance, which its candidates in the 2016 general election subscribed.
Within the 32nd Dáil, I4C took advantage of revised Dáil standing orders to form their own technical group, which also included three Independent TDs who were not members of the party itself: Catherine Connolly, Thomas Pringle, and Maureen O'Sullivan.
Tommy Broughan left the party on 26 July 2016.
In 2016 Ruth Nolan, a member of South Dublin County Council for Lucan who had been elected for People Before Profit, joined Independents 4 Change.
In May 2020, Joan Collins left I4C to found a new party called Right To Change, leaving the party with no TDs.Electoral history
