Better Way 2022, also known as A Better Way,[a] is a group of independent politicians in Jersey. It does not enforce a party whip, but its members subscribe to a list of common principles and pledge to work collaboratively together.[2]

Better Way was founded in March 2022 to contest the 2022 general election.[3] It stood five candidates for Deputy, of which four were elected.[4][5] All of its members in the States Assembly hold ministerial positions, including Kristina Moore, who served as Chief Minister of Jersey from July 2022 until January 2024.[6][7]
