THE mood was despondent as Carlos Antonio Lozada walked onto a makeshift stage in a plaza in Fusagasugâ, a town 70km (43 miles) south-west of Bogota, on March 3rd.

They listened with indifference while farc functionaries handed out lunch boxes, soft drinks and flags with the party's new rose-and-star symbol.
