Within the party, Tilg took over the function of the liberal state parliament on October 21, 2003. In the course of the separation of the BZÖ, he was expelled from the FPÖ at the beginning of April 2005. Tilg, who from November 25, 2001 had also been regional party chairman of the FPÖ-Tirol, subsequently founded the Free Party of Tyrol (FPT) with the FPÖ members represented in the state parliament, and he was elected club chairman on 29 April 2005.

In the run-up to the state elections in Tyrol in 2008 , the FPT announced that it would compete with the BZÖ in an electoral alliance called the "Alliance of Free Tyroleans". After the exit of the BZÖ Tirol, however, the FPT canceled its candidacy in the 2008 state elections at the beginning of May. Tilg therefore left the state parliament after the election on July 1, 2008.
