Derryn Hinch's Justice Party, also known as the Justice Party, was a political party in Australia, registered for federal elections since 14 April 2016.[7] The party was named after its founder, Derryn Hinch, an Australian media personality.
The party won a single three-year term in the Senate at the 2016 federal election, after achieving 6.05% of the first-preference votes in Victoria, though lost the seat in 2019. It also was registered by the Victorian Electoral Commission in May 2018[8] and ran candidates in the 2018 Victorian state election, three of whom were elected. No Justice Party candidates were re-elected at the 2022 Victorian state election.
In March 2023, Hinch announced that the party would be dissolved following poor election results.[9][10][11]
