Roman Haider

Roman Haider (born 13 April 1967) is an Austrian politician who has been a member of European Parliament since 2019,[1] and formerly a member of the National Council, for the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ).

[3] In the 2008 elections, Haider won a seat via the FPÖ regional list for Upper Austria and was sworn in as a member of parliament on October 28, 2008.

However, he said that the main areas of his work as a member of parliament were the economy, budget and finance.

Despite the FPÖ only winning 3 seats and Haider being placed 4th on the list, Heinz-Christian Strache and Petra Steger would decline their seats, hence allowing Haider to enter the European Parliament.

In the National Council, Haider would be replaced with Sandra Wohlschlager.
