UNP Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe today said they are ready to hold both Presidential and General Elections in a democratic and legal manner after having talks with all political parties.
Addressing the UNP rally held at the Lipton Circus, Colombo 07, Mr. Wickremesinghe said they are also ready to show the majority in parliament yet again if President Maithripala Sirisena doesn’t accept Speaker’s letter.

Fantastic news. But please do not allow MS to resign, and evade the process of impeachment. Should the rule of law prevail then he must be put the due process for his recklessness in office and total disregard for the Constitution. This is the only send off he deserves for his actions over the past few weeks.

MesS has his personal agenda and MR has yet another agenda which are not revealed. But they together put the Country in to a deep crisis.

Why are the general elections needed when there is parlimentary majority available? Why do you drag the people into unnecessary inconvenience of the blunder created one man who was elected to correct the wrongs and help the people live comfortably ? What has made you to suggest elections when the present illegal government will use government machinery and infrastructure in their favour to capture the power . So no elections are needed .

It may be the only way to solve the present crisis. Let the people speak.

Good idea to hold the presidential and general together. This will save many millions. People are not fond of you and MS, both must go.

Pohottu party people can sleep well today. They don't know the law and has no respect for it. I propose to hand over all 225 MPs to Pohottuwa and see how they will develop this country. No use of other MPs in parliament.

First PC, then Parliament then get rid of Presidential powers and make it a ceremonial position.

if there is a election, please handover the leadership to sajith Premadasa if the UNP needs to win.

Contest the next election on the plank to abolish the executive Presidential system once and for all! Anyone with similar personalities as MR and MS would do more damage in the future, if ain't abolished.
