Marcial Manrique Hernandez (born 20 April 1974) is a Dutch former army officer and former politician.[1]

He became a member of the House of Representatives for the Party for Freedom (PVV) on 17 June 2010. As an MP, he focused on matters of the Dutch defense.

Hernandez announced on 3 July 2012, in the wake of a press conference by Geert Wilders, that he had just left the PVV due to internal struggles. He did so together with fellow MP Wim Kortenoeven.[2] They formed the Kortenoeven/Hernandez Group, that was in Parliament until 19 September 2012 (after the general elections, in which they didn't take part).
