Originally a non-inscrit in the European Parliament, he joined the Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy (EFDD) on 20 October 2014. The EFDD had briefly ceased to exist when Iveta Grigule left the group since it no longer had representatives from seven different countries as the European Parliament rules require. Upon Iwaszkiewicz joining, group leader Nigel Farage stated "To paraphrase Mark Twain "Rumours of our death have been greatly exaggerated."" as the group again had members from the required seven countries.
Iwaszkiewicz cited UKIP"s support for free market economy and fight against European Union bureaucracy as reasons for joining the group.
