He deserves to be the PM for being a loyal member of the party and also being the most senior politician. It is much hoped that he will stand up to the status of PM and uphold the dignity of the country.

I wish this position went to Mervyn, a great man, with strong leadership qualities whose ancestors are linked to King Dutugemunu

Well, This is not the time to sympathies- Country first is the motto- we cannot waste any time with dummies we need action oriented people right now.I mean NOW . People have given a overwelmeing mandate expectIng qucik action on the road to developement , cost of living & unemployment-
Idealy a guy like Basil would have been the best bet among the lot.
We lack a stateman and a visionery who loves are counrty
Sorry we may have to wait till next election to see opening of crash projects- bridges- road, factories.
We are good at Slogons- Matka thitha- Rata prata- Appi wagmu- but no action-0 0

Finally, this guy deserves this being in Politics and SLFP for over 4 decades. A Prime Minister from Gampola is welcome since he is a man who did something for people though I am not a SLFP supporter.
