The RPCA was formed in 2017 following the National Union Party leadership election when right-wing candidate Richard Baron won the leadership, resulting in the party's left wing (the "red tories") to split from the NUP and form a new party of "progressive, conservative values" with leadership contender and MP Daniel Lee becoming leader. The RPCA subsequently became the fourth largest party in the House of Councillors.
