The Reform Conservatives (Die Reformkonservativen, REKOS) is a conservative political party in Austria.
The party was launched on 23 December 2013 by Ewald Stadler, a former member of the National Council and eurosceptic MEP for the Freedom Party (FPÖ) and the Alliance for the Future (BZÖ). In the run-up of the 2014 European Parliament election, REKOS formed a joint list with the Christian Party of Austria (CPÖ).[1]
The Reform Conservatives want to abolish the European Parliament and to reverse the 1992 Maastricht Treaty that created the European Union. They plan to cooperate with the right-wing eurosceptic Europe of Freedom and Democracy group.[2]
