Ranil......... What are you up to . Who is advising you or do you take advise at all. May the working class bless you.

Amila. G Tuesday, 01 May 2012 10:39 AM

What else will they remove ,To grab power.

kapa Tuesday, 01 May 2012 11:29 AM

STOP VOTING FOR FACE VALUE. IT IS TIME TO ANALYSE THE VALUE AND SKILLS OF A PERSON PRIOR SELECTING PEOPLE TO PARLIMENT. People will have wrong impressions about Ranils visit and holding May rally in Jaffna cos sinhalese have an ill feelings about nothern Tamils. It is time we think that Jaffna is also a part of SL and Tamils are part of srilankan community.

Kokila Tuesday, 01 May 2012 11:52 AM

He has removed everything politically, Anybody can understand that he supports MR and betrayed the party.

AJAPA Tuesday, 01 May 2012 12:27 PM

You remind me of "Mind Your Language".

sunil Jayawardene Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:43 AM

I guess this is how the UNP is trying to get Hindu voters on their side.

Channa Tuesday, 01 May 2012 08:09 AM

May Day celebrations.......A change expecting a change !

UNP Tuesday, 01 May 2012 08:13 AM

Ranil Proved that all thanks will be going to MR and brothers who lead the forces to victory and lead Ranil to have May day in Jaffna to avoid stones in South.

dave Tuesday, 01 May 2012 08:14 AM

If people give him a chance to be a ruler of this county. I am sure he will develop this country with out Corruption.

raj Tuesday, 01 May 2012 08:13 AM

many years before mahinda R visited to nallur. now Ranil, Both are blessed by Nallur God (kathrgama Kanda god) . there is no significant change in north and east.

Kondebandapucheena Tuesday, 01 May 2012 08:47 AM

He will develop people around him not the Country,2001 we have already seen ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Dinesh Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:26 AM

Compared to the current goverment Ranil's mamgement 100 time better.Further every one speak about SATHOSA how many people realy know what they talking about

Roy Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:24 AM

Aren't you a blind/deaf dreamer...!!! without corruption ?? - UNP Govt which RW was a cabinet member introduced large scale corruption to this country...RW is also no stranger to maintaining torture camps.....

machan Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:41 AM

It's good he went to Jaffna. Next time to Batti.Good luck.

Sumathipala Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:42 AM

@dave. You are correct, anyway it cannot be worst. You can tell a lot about him, but he is not doing this dirty things what happens now. I only doubt about some people around him. With wrong advisers it will go wrong.

Guru Tuesday, 01 May 2012 07:57 AM

What a BORU SHOW. Humans can be so chekey

Pawlpakse Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:39 AM

Mr. Bean.

Arujuna Fernando Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:50 AM

The first picture show really like Mr.bean. ITs our fate no strong oposition and they are there to save their chair

Bakamuna Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:51 AM

and what are you seeing now cheena, mihin air, train from BIA , port, and many more to fill the pockets of the family....what has been pocketed for the past 4 years is more than what unp did in 17 years.... so i say UNP is far better than the present regime...

Rajah Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:42 AM

Mr Bean thinks that divine power will work when his party doesn't want him and also a man who was trying to give the north and east to LTTE without the knowledge of the sri lankans. Divine power doesn't work for playing double games.

Dinithi Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:49 AM

He should have held the rally in Kilinochchi.

Kalana Tuesday, 01 May 2012 09:49 AM

Everyone same in our politics, Please don't make fun of him only. He is getting returns for what he had done.

Dinithi Tuesday, 01 May 2012 10:07 AM

The problem wih Ranil is that majority of the people do not like him eventhough not many hate him as MR. Whether he can run the country good or bad is secondary because SL is an 'election country'. He needs to get elected. A good leader needs to have more people liking him than the number hating them. MR has a lot of people hating him but a huge number of people liking him. Hence he cannot be beaten by Ranil. But Sajith can beat him, I think.

Chat Tuesday, 01 May 2012 10:03 AM

Really??
Where do you live ?
Come back to Sri Lanka and see the difference from your own eyes !!!
