[edit]Party changes
[edit]Below are all parliament members that have joined another party or become independent during the term.
Simon Emil Ammitzbøll-Bille created Forward in October 2019 and dissolved the party a year later in October 2020. During his time in his new party, the Folketing considered him to be outside a group. Uffe Elbæk, Sikander Siddique and Susanne Zimmer created Independent Greens in September 2020. The same was the case for Lars Løkke Rasmussen, who founded the Moderates in June 2021.[7] The Independent Greens became an official group in the Folketing after they had collected the required signatures to be able to run in the next Folketing election.[8][9]
On 18 August 2021, the Conservative People's Party told Naser Khader that he could not continue in the party, after allegations that Khader had been responsible for several cases of sexual harassment. Khader accepted this and left the party.[10]
