The Independent Democrats (ID) was a South African political party, formed by former Pan Africanist Congress member Patricia de Lille in 2003 via floor crossing legislation.[1] The party's platform was premised on opposition to corruption, with a mixture of liberal principles and strategies for improving equity.[citation needed] The party's strongholds were the Northern and Western Cape.

On 15 August 2010, the party announced plans to merge with the larger Democratic Alliance as part of a plan to challenge the governing African National Congress (ANC).[2] The party disbanded as a separate political organization in 2014.
