Changes in political affiliation

Once elected, members are organized in parliamentary groups (Spanish: grupos parlamentarios). The formation of such groups is up to the members, but it is common for members elected within the same list to form part of the same group. Members that do not belong to any group are place in the Mixed Group. Members may leave their group if they wish so. They can also be expelled from it. Their political affiliation is unlinked to the group they belong, meaning that changing or leaving a political party does not mean necessarily leaving or changing group.

The following list records members that changed party and/or group during this session.

Movimiento Ciudadano de Cartagena is a regional political party in the region of Murcia, Spain. Its primary strength is located in the city of Cartagena. It advocates for cartagenerism, a social, political and ideological movement in Spain centered in Cartagena, which pursues the right and recognition of an autonomous territory separated from the rest of Murcia that includes this municipality and its region, Campo de Cartagena, which includes the municipalities of La Unión, Los Alcázares, San Javier, San Pedro del Pinatar, Torre Pacheco, Fuente Álamo, some districts in the south of Murcia, such as Lobosillo, as well as Mazarrón ; as well as the defense of the identity of Cartagena and its environment. According to its political program, it also advocates for women's and LGBT rights and environmentalism. The party promotes regional biprovinciality as a way of "not having to identify the entire Region with [the] municipality [of Murcia], enjoy greater autonomy and achieve greater political weight" in the Cortes Generales.
