1. ^ On April 11, 2012, Hirayama submitted a notice of resignation from the party to the Democratic Party in protest at the Noda Cabinet's proposal to gradually raise the Consumption tax.[7][8][9] Hirayama became an independent after his resignation from the Party was accepted on May 8.[10] On October 1 of the same year, he joined the People's New Party.[11] On November 26, he left the People's New Party with Shizuka Kamei and joined the formation of Tax Cuts Japan.[12] He had planned to run as a candidate for Tax Cuts Japan from the Kyushu proportional representation block,[13] but he gave up running in the general election because Tax Cuts Japan was dissolved after being absorbed by the Tomorrow Party and the Tomorrow Party did not nominate Hirayama as a candidate.
