They told Daily Mirror the venue would be decided on January 3 when Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe meets all party organizers at Temple Trees and at this meeting, the party would make key decisions on the local government election campaign.

A UNP minister when contacted, confirmed the date of the convention and that all electoral organisers would meet on January 3.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister is expected to sign the proposal to present the document on the media ethnics for the LG elections to Parliament on January 2.

Ranil may not be a populist but he is the only leader we have today who understands world politics and can make it good for the next generation. He is our last hope. So the UNP needs to be there.

People should not vote for this government unless all those who are involved in th bond scam are punished .
