Britain’s Conservative Party in its manifesto extended its continuous support in international initiatives to achieve reconciliation, stability and justice across the world including Sri Lanka.

“We will continue to support international initiatives to achieve reconciliation, stability and justice across the world, and in current or former conflict zones such as Cyprus, Sri Lanka and the Middle East, where we maintain our support for a two-state solution. Once we leave the EU, we will champion these values even more strongly,” the manifesto stated.

“From helping to end the slave trade to tackling modern slavery, the UK has long been a beacon of freedom and human rights – and will continue to be so. We are proud of our peace-building and humanitarian efforts around the world, particularly in war-torn or divided societies, and of our record in helping to reduce global poverty,” it added.

Thanks, a two state solution is the need of the hour with the ugly racism raising its head. Hurry!

Agree fully.

Cheap politics to get votes from the diaspora.

UK stop protecting the LTTE terrorists.

A two state solution for 10-15% population? Ludicrous! Can minorities in U.K. demand a separate state or do they have to abide by the rules of the majority English; including learning their language??

Recommendations from a UK political party who supported apartheid in South Africa? Another apartheid here?

Perhaps they should reconcile with their black population and Muslim population after the racist remarks of their PM Boris, before interfering in our reconciliation!

Did India give a separate state to the 50 million plus in South India?

Sashi Monday, 25 November 2019 04:07 PM

Ethnic cleansing in the north and east does make it an exclusive homeland for one ethnicity. Do we want to become like the native Indians of US, and confined to parts of our country?
