  Workers Party of Belgium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Workers' Party of Belgium (WPB) (Dutch: Partij van de Arbeid van België, French: Parti du Travail de Belgique) is a Belgian communist party.
They were influenced by the ideas of the Communist Party of China, guerrilla movements in Latin America, the movement against Vietnam War, and the Leuven-Vlaams mouvement, the democratisation of the (then still French-speaking) University of Leuven (in the Flemish-speaking part of Belgium).
The party formed an electoral coalition in Flanders with the Arab European League for the 2003 elections, named RESIST, running a campaign that also called for the establishment of Islamic confessional schools for children, which would be financed by the government.

 Belgium: A managed democracy
The social democrat PS (Parti Socialiste), which has been the biggest party on that side of the language border for most of recent history, is worried about an electoral backlash against its neo-liberal policies in the national, regional and local governments and in protest at their cronyism in Wallonia.
The far right and fascist parties, which are extremely disorganised in the French speaking part of the country, have picked up support in the last two years, and are on the verge of a breakthrough.
The rise of these parties is caused by the anti-working class policies of the ruling class and the lack of a political alternative that would defend the interests of the working class and poor.

 Assemblée parlementaire du Conseil de l'Europe
At national level, the political response should be aimed at depriving extremist parties of their electoral support by addressing the social and economic issues, such as unemployment, immigration and security that these parties capitalise on and by developing policies of education to democratic citizenship based on the rights and responsibilities of the citizens.
The spectacular growth in nationalist-populist parties in the nineties was made possible by an ideological renewal that had become necessary because of the discredit into which movements claiming to be in the tradition of fascism or authoritarian regimes (Franco, Salazar, Greek military dictatorship), to say nothing of national-socialism, had fallen since 1945.
Extremist parties prosper during periods of economic and social uncertainty, finding an audience amongst several sectors of the population, especially those who are or fear to be directly concerned by the economic difficulties.

 3rd party? don't make me laugh. - BeyondUnreal Forums
Since 94-95, Belgium became a federation with the flemish-speaking (variant of the dutch language) region of Flanders in the North, the french-speaking Wallonia in the South and the cultural mix that is Brussels in the middle.
The other big parties are the MR, the VLD, the PRL, the CDV, the CDH and Ecolo (this is not counting the extreme right wing parties that are the VB and FN).
Seeing the relatively high number of votes for the Socialist Party at each election, I think there's part of the population that votes for them by fear of seeing some of their advantages being cut by possible changes that a new dominant party might decide to impose.

 Blegian Electoral registration office bans several left wing groups from contesting elections - Indymedia Ireland   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
The decision to ban a Maoist party is not automatically a decision based on a threat to the ruling class - I don't think there's a single government in Western Europe that's in danger of a real threat from the left - but rather on the ramifications of how they define themselves.
A party defining itself as Maoist might face questions about the nature of China's human rights abuses under Mao, in particular his purge of "bandits, spies, bullies, and despots" which killed 700,000 people.
The reasoning behind banning such a party is similar to the reasoning behind banning an openly fascist party.

 Belgium - A new “Black Sunday”
The exacerbation by the traditional parties of rightwing nationalism, latent or open racism and fears over “security” and finally the treatment of the Blok as a party “like the others” by the Flemish-speaking media did the rest.
In fact, the Blok is now the biggest party in the North of the country given that the social-Christian party CDandV, which nominally came top of the poll, only did so through its electoral alliance with the N-VA, a small formation resulting from a split in the defunct nationalist party Volksunie.
Then because this federal government is a “violet” coalition between the socialist parties (the Francophone PS and the Flemish SPa, with their ally “Spirit” which emerged from Volksunie) and the liberal parties (the Francophone MR and the VLD).
