The Party to Protect the People from NHK (Parliamentary group)

The Party to Protect the People from NHK (Japanese: NHKから国民を守る党, NHK kara kokumin o mamoru tō) is a parliamentary group of the National Diet of Japan, consisting of two independent members of the House of Councillors.

History
The group was formed on August 10, 2023 by councillors Satoshi Hamada and Kenichiro Saito, who formerly belonged to the political party with the same name, but due an ongoing leadership dispute between former and de facto leader Takashi Tachibana and the incumbent de jure leader Ayaka Otsu, the Otsu-wing of the party expelled the both of them from the party for aligning themselves with Tachibana, resulting in them forming the parliamentary group to continue their activities as "members" of the party.
