Amazing term! Did you just invent that on the spot or is it a thing?

I borrowed it from Polish "plankton polityczny" (political plankton) which is a not uncommon term for MPs who are not members of any significant party in the parliament but also when they lack broader support. Slightly derisive.

Ahh Polish. You guys are true artists when it comes to telling the truth in creative (and often rude) ways. My compliments!
