People's United Left Front
The People's United Left Front was an electoral alliance in West Bengal, India, formed in December 1966, ahead of the 1967 West Bengal Legislative Assembly election. The front comprised the Communist Party of India, the Bangla Congress, the All India Forward Bloc and the Bolshevik Party of India. The front won 63 seats out of 280. After the election PULF merged with the United Left Front, forming the United Front. The UF formed a state government, dislodging the Indian National Congress for the first time in the state.[1]

gollark: I mean, you probably have *some* amount of time. Your school thing might have a deadline a bit before the UCAS one to manage paperwork and stuff.
gollark: January THIS year? That seems wrong. It's the same calendar year as when you do A levels I'm pretty sure.
gollark: Hmm, so the application deadline is January but your school might require stuff earlier.
gollark: There are online ones.
