[18] After Golden Dawn's failure to secure seats in the 2019 Greek legislative election,[19][20][21] prominent members of the party stepped down from their positions and distanced themselves from leader Nikolaos Michaloliakos.

[22] Noticeably, Giannis Lagos MEP announced his departure from Golden Dawn, along with Giorgos Germenis, Nikos Kouzilos and Panagiotis Iliopoulos to start a new party called National Popular Consciousness.

[14] Similarly, on 21 May 2020[26] and after much speculation, Ilias Kasidiaris an MP of Golden Dawn for eight consecutive years, from 2012 to 2019, announced his resignation via YouTube, and the creation of a new party led by himself, under the name Greeks for the Fatherland.

[29] In May 2021, the Greek Parliament voted to impose partial bans on all convicted members of Golden Dawn, including Ilias Kasidiaris, which stripped them of some political rights.

[52] On 8 February 2023, an amendment was nominated by the Plenary of the Hellenic Parliament, which puts a brake on the descent of Ilias Kasidiaris in the 2023 elections, but also on other political figures whose leaders have been convicted of criminal acts.
