Kuba left the Civic Democratic Party (ODS) in November 2025 after 22 years as a member. He announced his intention to form a new party, declaring that ODS could not be "fixed" anymore.[2] Senators Zbyněk Sýkora,[3] and Tomáš Fiala,[4]České Budějovice Mayor Dagmar Škodová Parmová,[5] and former South Bohemian governor Jan Zahradník also suspended their ODS membership and followed Kuba to the new movement.[6] 30 of the 34 South Bohemian representatives elected on the ODS candidate list in the regional elections in September 2024 also expressed their intention to join the new movement.[7] There has also been speculation that Pardubice Governor Martin Netolický,[8] former Moravian-Silesian governor Ivo Vondrák,[9] and former Pilsen Governor Rudolf Špoták are also ready to cooperate with the movement.[10]
Kuba registered 'Our Czechia' as a trademark,[11][12] and formally announced his party on 2 February 2026.[13] Journalists pointed out that the name 'Our Czechia' had been used by one of the funds of the J&T Group for several years.[14]
On 13 April 2026, Kuba announced on Facebook, that the party would cooperate with Netolický's party Us in the 2026 Czech municipal elections and intended to cooperate in the next parliamentary election. Netolický announced, that both parties would also cooperate in the 2026 Czech Senate election.[15]
Ideology
Kuba said the new political entity should be centre-right and liberal-conservative, with a clear value anchor in the European Union and NATO. He said the party intended to bring a more conciliatory style of politics, and would be an option for those who understand that the state should not take care of them in everything, but that it is also necessary to help the weak.[16]
