Established in 2010, Direct Democracy Ireland (DDI) was registered as a political party in October 2012. The organisation was founded by photographer Raymond Whitehead.

The party describes itself as neither "left or right, but about balance", seeking to transform the political system from representative democracy to direct democracy.

A number of publications have linked Direct Democracy Ireland with various fringe groups and ideologies, including with pseudolegal principles derived from the freeman on the land movement.
