Non-Inscrits
Non-attached members, also known by the French term (, NI), are members of the European Parliament (MEPs) who do not belong to one of the recognised political groups, which as May 2025 consisted of 8 groups ranging between far-left and far-right in their political positions.

Whilst some groups of MEPs who sit as non-inscrits may share similar views and express an in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
