The Independent Workers' Party (French: Parti ouvrier indépendant, POI) is a French Marxist political party founded in June 2008 after the dissolution of its predecessor, the Workers' Party. It claimed 10,071 members at its founding congress in 2008, and 8,000 members on its second congress in 2012.[2][3]
Amongst its four General Secretaries are former presidential candidates Gérard Schivardi and Daniel Gluckstein, who were members of a Trotskyist current within the party. Gluckstein was suspended following a leadership dispute in 2015, leading to the faction splitting and founding the Workers' Party.[4]
