Nepal's Maoist Party has won around 220 seats in the recent Constituent Assembly (CA) election, about one-third of the total. Though the largest party, they don't have an overall majority; they have stated their wish to lead a coalition government.

I was a Trotskyist from about 1997-2003 which involved three different political parties (and factions!), sometimes overlaping. But local activism and forrays onto Urban75 proved anarchos arent the baby eaters they are commonly depicted as. Then I linked up with some people involved in the Anarchist Youth Network (second incarnation).
Being a class concious politico I opted to join Solfed around 2004.
