The Frontline Socialist Party (FSP) was ready to work with the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) or any party who called themselves as leftists at this juncture where the county was embroiled in a devastating situation in terms of politics, the economy and the Constitution, FSP Education Secretary Pubudu Jayagoda said.

Addressing a news briefing today, he said they would work with anybody except with Mahinda Rajapaksa, Maithripala Sirisena and Ranil Wickremesinghe who should be held responsible for this prevailing anarchical state.

“The tactics of President Sirisena have resulted in a crisis situation and led to a Constitutional crisis as well. The recent speech delivered by President Sirisena shows how irresponsible he is. He said at the speech that parliament was dissolved due to the sad situation where elected MPs were putting a price on their value and the 'amazing behaviour' of Speaker Karu Jayasuriya,” Jayagoda said.

“If he had been so concerned of the sad situation where elected MPs were putting a price on their value, he as the executive should have taken steps instead of dragging the country into a catastrophe,” Jayagoda added.

He proceeded to say that the way the country was being governed, was so undemocratic and added there were ample pre-signs to say that the upcoming parliamentary elections would be a violent one.

Meanwhile, he said they would tomorrow organize rallies to mark November 29 ‘Il Maha Viru Day’ to commemorate fallen members of the party during the 1988/89 uprising.

“The rallies would commence from three separate venues and the main speech will be delivered by FSP General Secretary Senadeera Gunathilaka at Gampaha Sanasa building” he said. (Sheain Fernandopulle)

    These twu main parties(UNP and SLFP/SLPP) have ruined this country, the recent events and the MPs prices indicate the wealth they have made, It is hightime to teach them a lesson and therefore people must vote for some other parties.

    Labor strikes,armed coups by socialists made SL a 3rd world country. All the wealth otherwise would have been ours went to Asian countries. Thanks to Socialists.Nationalist right wing should wake up and support any leader who has been disfavored by these radical lefties. Because that is the right decision.

    Chaturanga Monday, 12 November 2018 05:24 PM

    Good Move.

    Please everyone, download a copy of "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, it's available on the internet in PDF format free of charge. Although it is fiction you will get a good idea how socialism works for some and bad for the rest of us.

    Both of your political parties have been rejected by the people since the day you guys decamp from the nationalist camp. Eg. The no. of MPs' coming down from 41 to 6. You could be champions among some of hot tempered uni students but a zero bunch politicos among masses.

    JVP is functioning as a grate democratic party in this country .

    Leu Monday, 12 November 2018 06:58 PM

    They are working with the UNP

    Fr. Sarath Iddamalgoda Monday, 12 November 2018 07:07 PM

    A very mature decision. Hope JVP will respond positively. Others ought to follow. This is no doubt a difficult path. But it is the only way.

    dickie bird Monday, 12 November 2018 07:21 PM

    Sorry ! mates of FLSP, no JVP for you as they have clung on to the elephants tail and on their way to heaven following a western style of Marxism.

    concern Monday, 12 November 2018 10:54 PM

    These are same people who destroyed our country in the past .

    Castro Monday, 12 November 2018 11:33 PM

    These fellows just stage protests on the streets causing severe hardships and inconvenience to the general public. Other than that what else these leftists are doing for the country.
