UNP Polonnarauwa District Member of Parliament Earl Gunasekera has decided to vote with the government for constitutional reforms when the proposals are presented in Parliament next week.

Speaking to Daily Mirror online the UNP MP said that he has already informed the UNP working committee about his decision to support the government proposals and is even ready to face any action by the party over his decision.

The UNP MP noted that the party, over the years had taken wrong decisions and hopes that things will change at least now when the government presents the constitutional reforms proposals for a vote next week.

He also noted that the UNP must come out of its “traditional” thinking of opposing everything the government or President Mahinda Rajapaksa puts forward. (Daily Mirror online)
