UNP is like a government department that is only concerned about administration. Not interested in people or winning. When will this bunch realize the ground reality! Just keep smiling like a bunch of jokers!

Sir, in order to look presidential material, you should think of dyeing your hair thick black, put a moustache and learn to fake a smile to fool the masses.

Strenghtless party and stenghless leader Ship. 13 amendment consituation things are going on the other side..But Our UnP fellows are not caring. No nay speach about this, they talk only the election right now. Even if u contest many election we will not win thats for sure.

UNP is a sub division of the government...

Ranil is the most genuine leader in Sri Lankan politics.

Mr.Plod Friday, 02 November 2012 05:41 PM

The 3D leader, Disgusting, Disappointing and Disgraceful.

Ranil needs to retire.He is unbelievably out of touch with the common man.He simply does not get that other than the Colombo area and suburbs people cannot relate to him.I cannot blame him because of his up bringing,but as long as he is in the UNP they will never get any where.Also please do not make
personal insults ex: about his hair etc. this is completely
unnecessary and is an indication of your own stupidity.People's appearence is their choice and is not in the polling booth. Please stick to relevancy!

If there is not Rnil no more U.N.P

The most needed radical change is to change the UNP leadership. Losing 29 straight elections Wickremesinghe must surely realise that the people have rejected him yet shamelessly hangs on
