The Alliance of Independent Democrats in Europe (AIDE) (Alliance des Démocrates Indépendants en Europe (ADIE) in French) was a

political party at the European level
.

Creation

AIDE was created on 28 October 2005 in the Rhône prefecture.[3] Its stated purpose was "to gather political movements, and elected members of the national and regional assemblies of the Member States of the European Union, that adhere to the policy defined in its charter."[3]

Position

AIDE described itself as the

United Kingdom Independence Party and the European Christian Political Movement
comprising the other factions of that group.

Website

As of January 2007, the group operated a limited French-language website. The group's website implied the existence of British, Czech, French, Greek, Irish, Italian and Polish delegations and identified Movement for France (MpF) MEP Patrick Louis as the president of AIDE. By February 2009, the ADIE website had devolved from providing original content to simply redisplaying feeds from the www.observatoiredeleurope.com website associated with the Independence/Democracy group

Membership

In light of the defection of Lega Nord (Italy) to UEN, it was believed that the members of AIDE as of January 2007 were as follows:

 Czech Republic
