Tapura Huiraatira (lit. 'List of the People') is apolitical party inFrench Polynesia. It was founded on 20 February 2016 by members ofTahoera'a Huiraatira (French:Rassemblement populaire), a parliamentary coalition in theAssembly of French Polynesia, as well as other smaller parties such asFetia Api.^[1][2]

It is chaired byÉdouard Fritch, thePresident of French Polynesia. Its first congress was attended by 8,000 people,^[3] including 38 Polynesian mayors.^[4]Nicole Sanquer was the party's onlyMember of Parliament^[5] before she left to joinA here ia Porinetia.

They wish to maintain political autonomy within theFrench Republic and continue to grow that relationship while strengthening ties withOceania, given their geographical position.^[6]

The party won 49 percent of the vote and 38 seats in the2018 French Polynesian legislative election.^[7] Fritch was re-elected asPresident of French Polynesia,^[8] whileGaston Tong Sang was elected President of the Assembly.^[9]

In March 2019 the party declared its support forLa République En Marche! in the2019 European Parliament election, resulting in criticism from its National Assembly and Senate members over a lack of consultation.^[10]

In September 2022Teva Rohfritsch,Nicole Bouteau andPhilip Schyle resigned from the party, citing disappointment withEdouard Fritch's government.^[11]

The party submitted its list for the2023 French Polynesian legislative election on 17 March 2023.^[12] The party came second in the first round, with 30% of the vote.^[13] It subsequently formed a joint list withʻĀmuitahiraʻa o te Nūnaʻa Māʻohi, the Union of Autonomists Against Independence.^[14]

In early 2015, 4 members of theTahoera'a Huiraatira party were excluded from being associated with the party in the upcoming senatorial elections. These were the members ofLana Tetuanui,Nuihau Laurey,Michel Buillard, andTeapehu Teahe due to their rebelling from party rhetoric during their time in the assembly. In the 2015 elections, onlyNuihau Laurey andLana Tetuanui were re-elected, however, both were given political support by the at-the-time French-Polynesian President and leader ofTahoera'a Huiraatira,Édouard Fritch, as well as theA Tia Porinetia (ATP) coalition.^[15]

In late 2015, a group of members (initially 15, later 20) fromTahoera'a Huiraatira chose to dissent from the party due to conflicts between the former leader,Gaston Flosse, and PresidentÉdouard Fritch, as well as the exclusion of party members.^[15][16]

In 2016, an extremely short-lived working group was established to support the dissenting former party leaderÉdouard Fritch called the 'Rassemblement pour une Majorité Autonomiste' (lit. 'Rally for an Autonomous Majority'), which included 20 (later 22) dissenting members ofTahoera'a Huiraatira, 8 members of the 'A Tia Porinetia' (lit. 'The Gathering of Polynesians') coalition, and one former UPLD, Union pour la Démocratie (lit. 'Union for Democracy'), coalition member.[2]^{[15][16][17][18]}

On the 20th of February the official creation of the Tapura Huiraatira party is announced, with the former parties ofTo Tia Porinetia (ATP),O Porinetia To Tatou Aia,No Oe e Te Nunaa (NOETN),Fetia Api andTe Aveia being dissolved.^{[2][15][16][17]}
