The Association of Former Members of Parliament is a British organisation for former members of the House of Commons of the United Kingdom founded in 2003.[1]

It produces a magazine called Order! Order! and has an office in the House of Commons.[2] It has members of all political parties including both John Major and Tony Blair.[3]

In 2007 it commissioned research on "the challenges former parliamentarians can face in navigating the world of work".[4]
