    MS id the worst enemy of the people, democracy and the country. No man has single handedly betrayed the people and the country like MS in our whole history

    Did you feel the same when he betrayed Mahinda kicking 30 yrs of partnership?

    F J Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:47 AM

    Sira is worst than a terrorist......Such a low cast vulgar hooligan. This is one of the worst president the world had ever seen. I voted for this idiot to bring him to power but now I feel shamed. Get lost you moran !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stop destroying my island....It is time to gather for a long stand like in Egypt.....to get this fool out for once and for all.

    ediri Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:51 PM

    Sira is a good guy,I like his glasses and teeth.

    Gune Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:48 AM

    The President is not bluffing politicians he is bluffing us the people of Sri Lanka. He has destroyed the future of this country and has set a new standard for violence and violations. Children and people follow their leaders and this kind of lieing and manipulating and cheating will permeate into our schools, business , sports and everyday life. This President and his fake regime has no place in our country. I AM NOT A SUPPORTER OF RW but a supporter of a free and fare Sri Lanka. Let’s send Ranil home democratically. MR does not have to be even considered or treated this way as he came through the back door illegally with MS holding his hand like a baby. Let’s send him through hensame back door they came from.

    Personality Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:53 AM

    Sir, since Oct. 26th the seqence of events and rowdy behaviours of some of our MPs in the parliament has tarnished the image of our country. Before you see the ashes of democracy in the country rise above the personal differences and put the country first and your problems next.

    lalkanthan Saturday, 17 November 2018 08:00 AM

    This idiot will accept the behavior of his rogue PM and MPS

    Sunil Saturday, 17 November 2018 08:23 AM

    WHOLE COUNTRY AT CHAOS AND WORLD WATCHING.....AN AGONY CHAPTER OF NATION...YOU JUST WAIT.....

    suren Saturday, 17 November 2018 06:56 PM

    MS is the Judas of the 21st century. Like Judas, it is MS that will have to face the consequences. However, in the process, he has brought the country to disgrace, the economy to ruin and the society to the brink of disaster, all to fulfill his personal agenda

    Nihal Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:05 PM

    MS YOU UNCIVILIZED BETRAYED PUPPET DISGRACE TO THE ENTIRE WORLD YOU TOTALLY CREATED THIS UGLY SITUATION PLEASE RESIGN IMMEDIATELY WE ALL VOTED 62%BUT YOU TOTALLY FAILED

    haleema Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:25 PM

    Why so greedy for power at the expense of Sri Lanka's democracy? We want a decent democratic government. We Sri Lankans are not unintelligent and Rowdyism people. We are intelligent, decent and democratic loving people. We want stability in our economy. Please choose a playground or an indoor stadium and have your tug of war and not in the parliament. As we Sri Lankans are not like you All, we cannot tolerate anyone of you anymore. Behave decently, abide by the law, protect the democracy if not leave the parliament decently

    Don Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:26 PM

    I cannot believe this man, he has not still condemned the unruly thuggery behavior of his team of thugs, but the whole world has seen how they were dancing according to defeated mans tune.Shame with you.We will surely look after them at the polls.

    Viktor Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:31 PM

    The only vote he would accept is one in favour of MR.

    hello Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:40 PM

    TONY Saturday, 17 November 2018 07:56 PM

    ajith Saturday, 17 November 2018 09:52 PM

    if TNA and JVP take government responsibilities with UNP and give up their opposition positions to SLFP. Mahinda will go to opposite

    VJ Saturday, 17 November 2018 10:59 PM

    What steps did they follow when the NCM against RW was presented in parliament? Will the president be satisfied if those steps are followed?

    kulesh Saturday, 17 November 2018 11:09 PM

    All the troubles were ignited by non other than MS who wanted to get 2nd term of office and it would be possible if he gets the support of MR. Now it has backfired and he has taken 'trishanku' stage and has plunged the country into a dark era. They are trying to tell the people the only way out for this mess is going for general election where MS-MR combine thinks they can secure majority and come to power. But the way matter unfolds, that chance is also diminishing day by day. MR stood a better chance before this drama started and at the moment definitely his image is also tarred by his stooges. The only person who can give a solution is non other than MS who started this problem.

    lilantha Saturday, 17 November 2018 11:23 PM

    Who the devil is Lakshman Yapa to comment about what the president says,,does the Presidnet has no backbone to tell what he wants straight,,without being blackmailed by these rogues who lost their parliamentary seat and cam eon the national list,,and now without amajority trying to capture the power of the Govt,,what hooligans and rogues these guys are,,

    wirantha Saturday, 17 November 2018 11:24 PM

    Sirisena worst President sri Lanka has produced,,real samanalaya,,jumping from side to side ,,,he will learn a bitter lesson he will never forget thsi time

    GH Saturday, 17 November 2018 11:37 PM

    Please kick out the present speaker Karu Jayasuriya to appoint a personnel who must abide by the law and the order of the parliamentary procedures.

    Palitha Sunday, 18 November 2018 12:05 AM

    This man created the whole problem to become president in the next election.It does not matter to him what happens to the country. You better resign now without bringing shame and destruction to our country.The guy does not want to accept who has the majority in the parliament and talking about procedures of the NCM.

    Ranjan Sunday, 18 November 2018 05:38 AM

    Vijekumar Sunday, 18 November 2018 06:42 AM

    I am very disgusted with the Cardinal involvement in the political turmoil. 17 priests And seven nuns came from my family. He should be a peace maker. Next month I am going to meet my old classmates from the Italian seminaries. I will try to meet the Cardinal who is in charge of propagande Fide.

    baba Wednesday, 21 November 2018 10:11 AM

    People should recognize who tarnished the country and shall not vote next time.

    Andrew Wednesday, 21 November 2018 08:13 PM

    We the people of Sri Lanka will group and forcefully evictth These rogues if they don’t leave peacefully Violence seems to be the only language they understand Hang these bastatards at the first opportunity
