    as usual, all the UNP will do is object, toot horns, dash pots, while we watch the entire opposition self destruct.

    The fools who have sent the above comments should realise that they should express their veiws on the Constitutional amendments and not on personalities.

    You have destroyed the one time most powerful single party. You dont have enough numbers to oppose. Game is over now.

    Disgusted UNPer Wednesday, 01 September 2010 04:27 PM

    Ranil, you are running with the hare and hunting with the hound!!!

    Labby Wednesday, 01 September 2010 01:25 PM

    And what of Lakshman Seneviratne ?

    Smart Aleck Wednesday, 01 September 2010 01:10 PM

    Did the Supreme Court say, "No Referendum"?

    Geronimo Wednesday, 01 September 2010 12:46 PM

    That is all the UNP can do and nothing else.

    Actually it doesn't matter. :)

    NADARAJAH SETHURUPAN Wednesday, 01 September 2010 10:40 AM

    Object FROM opposition.

    Vishan Alvis Wednesday, 01 September 2010 10:31 AM

    I honestly don't believe a word coming out from this man now or from his party, which I'm officially distancing myself, as they lack any principals, period.

    Prabth Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:03 AM

    Just objecting is not enough. U.N.P should come forward against this move actively.

    Akila Wednesday, 01 September 2010 10:07 AM

    what a joke!!

    Ajithkumar Wednesday, 01 September 2010 10:05 AM

    What are the Numbers you have to Vote against ... Ranil ... you make me Cry... He he ...

    athula Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:46 AM

    is there a party called UNP in sri lanka ?

    Roshan Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:44 AM

    The Government have enough majority to pass it, your vote is not neccessary. You had secret talks with the MR at Temple Trees and just to show the public you vote against it. Whom are you fooling.

    AMEER Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:33 AM

    if UNP not oppse- no meaning as opposition . so you must oppsoe

    Bambuwa Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:30 AM

    Ranil is the one who sabotaged the protests against the dictatorial amendments by running to MR without the sanction of the party. Time to resign Ranil.

    Neomal Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:22 AM

    The UNP is a spent force. What can they do? Only shout and Nothing. Else!!

    nuwan Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:18 AM

    as if it will make a difference

    King Wednesday, 01 September 2010 09:15 AM

    this is the opposition. Oppose every thing. Mr. Ranil Please explain us the issues what the reforms has.
