    ANTON Wednesday, 14 November 2018 02:02 PM

    BUT NOW PREZ HAS ONLY TWO TRUMP CARDS........... RESIGNING ONE AND COMMITTING SUICIDE ONE...... HE WANTS TO KNOW WHICH CARD WE PREFER FIRST

    ANTON Wednesday, 14 November 2018 02:04 PM

    NOW PREZ IS ALSO LIKE SRILANKAN RUPEE COIN...... DAY BY DAY GOING DOWN.

    why to inform president, you carry on the rest. appoint your own govt and continue, you have all executive powers..

    Sri Wickrema Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:24 PM

    Feeling sad? Dont dishearten. Your HE Prez holds more trump cards. But dont know if they are jokers as same as played so far.

    It is not the priority to issue public notices. If Speaker is impartial and want to calm down the situation, he should talk to President and solve the issue. By issuing this kind of statements he provoke public for a civil unrest.

    The speaker is doing his job, not trying to please the MR supporters like you guys. Are you one of Namal's goons?

    Saman Wednesday, 14 November 2018 02:09 PM

    Mithri had a chance to remove Ranil from his sheet when they brought a no-faith motion against Ranil. But did Maithri's guys vote for it? Did Mahinda really want him to be removed? Don't blame others now.

    Sirisena... Ko me Sirisena...

    Johan Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:01 PM

    Now the President has failed in everything. He must resign and pave way for Karu to take over the responsibilities asPer the 19th amendment to the constitution followed by UNP government .

    Charlie brown Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:16 PM

    A fistfull of trump cards , an angel sitting on your shoulder and the best PR firm in the world is never going to resurrect MS presidency .Best just go home ,read a good book and leave the grown up stuff to those who can .

    De Silva Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:19 PM

    Aiyo. Sirisena

    Riham Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:20 PM

    Resign in an hour? What happening ?

    GH Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:29 PM

    Wait, a big twice turn awaiting, people's power will win.

    Samson Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:44 PM

    Pres must use the remaining trump cards to dissolve the SLFP, Presidency and Sri Lanka.

    Keeraipidi Wednesday, 14 November 2018 03:45 PM

    I guess that this is an olive branch and rescue mission for the president to climb out of the well he fell into or forced to fall into.The next step will be impeachment.

    Dee Wednesday, 14 November 2018 05:36 PM

    Get a response fast. Friday evening is near!

    Samson Wednesday, 14 November 2018 05:44 PM

    Parliament must now resolve to have the presidential election as a priority, along with the general election.
