Right to Change (also written as Right2Change or RTOC) is a minor left-wing[1][2] political party in Ireland.[3] It was founded in May 2020 by TD Joan Collins. Collins was elected as an Independents 4 Change TD in the 2020 general election; she had previously been a member of the Socialist Party.[3] The party has invited trade unions to affiliate.[4]
The party focuses on social and economic justice, grassroots activism, and progressive policies.[5]
RTOC gained representation on Dublin City Council, after two former Independents 4 Change councillors, Sophie Nicoulland and Pat Dunne, joined the party. Only Dunne was re-elected at the 2024 local elections.[6][7][8]
For the 2024 general election, Collins was the sole candidate to run for RTOC.[9][10] She was not re-elected, leaving the party without national representation.[11]
