After the failure to obtain expected 10-15% in 2016 Slovak parliamentary elections (actually only 5,6%) and secret talks of Procházka with Robert Fico from SMER-SD to join the coalition government, the #Network started to fall apart and in few months, all the MPs either became independent (later formed new party SPOLU) or joined other coalition party, Most-Híd. Fedor has joined Most-Híd in 2016 and has been its member ever since.
