Joint Opposition member MP Namal Rajapaksa yesterday in a tweet said President Maithripala Sirisena’s habit of betrayal had been proved once again during the voting of the no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe.

MP Rajapaksa said President Sirisena had initially encouraged Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) members to support the no-confidence motion and then backed away betraying both the SLFP and the United National Party (UNP).

#SriLanka President @MaithripalaS’s habit of betrayal proven again at #NoConfidenceMotionSL against Prime Minister @RW_UNP. First he encouraged SLFP members to support it and then backs off. He has betrayed both the SLFP & UNP.

He also tweeted that Minister Susil Premajayantha and other seniors of the SLFP had decided to take an ethical and firm stand supporting the no-confidence motion.

He added that they had given priority to the stability and future of the country.

Hon Minister Susil Premajayantha & seniors of @SLFreedomParty have opted to take an ethical & firm stand by supporting the #NoConfidenceMotion
It’s clear that they’ve given precedence to the stability and future of #SriLanka & #lka people over all else.

First of all you and your family members along with JO fraudsters must get clearance from all court cases then open your mouth

kalamaya Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:38 PM

All these 'wins' will come to an end when the majority speaks at the general election.

mali Thursday, 05 April 2018 01:19 PM

The MPs are already voted by general public.public.

simon Thursday, 05 April 2018 01:28 PM

By then most of the JO members will be behind bars for sure.

Raj Thursday, 05 April 2018 11:57 AM

You and your big mouth ...... lah

Namali Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:46 PM

There'll be no SLFP after 2020 courtesy our President.

Rohitha Thursday, 05 April 2018 11:58 AM

Ethical stand of senior SLPers, well, tell us about it. You talk of achieving stability and protecting the future of the country by winning the no confidence motion. What a joke !!

tintin Thursday, 05 April 2018 11:58 AM

Channa Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:01 PM

Ayo Namal baby, Please don't cry. Accept the defeat ! pleaseeee

Jayarathna Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:48 PM

One more NCM against the PM the entire SLFP minus My3 will be in SLPP.

mali Thursday, 05 April 2018 01:23 PM

You are regarded only when papa in power. Dont make papa unpopular by silly politics.

Nihal Thursday, 05 April 2018 05:21 PM

Don't insult the public intelligence. Every thinking, honest person knows the vote was fixed by paying pooja money to MP's and agreeing to their demands. See if RK is not back in the saddle soon.

Kumara Dharmarathne Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:01 PM

Mr. Namal Rajapaksa, It's not President's betrayal,you guys still do not know what your strengths are. How many of your party advised you guys not to do this but you did not listen to them because Rajapaksas are very famous in not listening to advices. Don't blame President or any body else, It's you guys' own mistake. One more thing,don't worry about the defeat because your Dad says defeat is a victory.

johan Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:33 PM

May be his father is under the impression Ranil won and it is victory for him and his family

cham Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:07 PM

People with ethics will not engage in any corrupt activities and also will not support corrupt individuals in either side.

Suganthi Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:51 PM

Actually the real winner is Rajapakse. He has shown that the seniors of SLFP are with him.

Janathawa Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:07 PM

You fellows betrayed our country starting with the pocketing of tsunami funds.........!

malij Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:17 PM

Namal baby talking about ethics. Wonder whether he even knows the meaning of ethics.

Shan Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:21 PM

Thieves now speak of ethics.

TJ Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:22 PM

The, why don't you all bring a no confidence motion against the President, with the support of UNP?

R K Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:49 PM

There's no legal provision to do that

Just wondering Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:25 PM

I thought you were with Napalese girls teaching how to score goals.

Sambo Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:28 PM

It should be said like this. "The Rajapakshas betrayed the pwople" as non of you voted for it. You did the same the last time. Shame on you.

Calista PG Thursday, 05 April 2018 12:33 PM

'Pakshe' ethics : 'Stability','Future' what else?
