    Disgraceful guys. Just wanting positions. These politicians should be kicked out. They never learn. Kick them out. Kick them out.

    Am still waiting for PM RW to show the majority support in the parliament !! Am sure he'll get The necessary support, but for me, for the record I'd like to see which SLPP MP's supporting RW !! Because it certainly ironic!!

    Harin and Manusha are latest entrants to Ranil Rajapakshe regiment.

    Jude Friday, 20 May 2022 11:20 AM

    So Harin's wish came true!! If you sell your soul to get power, then that's what politics all about!! And policies and principles don't matter!!

    It's same old pack of cards....keep shuffling.

    At least one minister will not talk at all, Tiran Alles !!!

    Ruscell Friday, 20 May 2022 11:43 AM

    What a load of garbage. These scoundrels have failed before they will fail again. There is no hope for Sri Lanka

    At this crisis situation we don't need a jumbo cabinet with 15 ministers we have to solve the burning issues. After improving the economy go for an election and get the mandate from the people. Don't auction the ministry portfolios and pass burden on us.

    Mudalali Friday, 20 May 2022 11:50 AM

    All useless good for nothing oxygen thieves! The only guarantee is the further destruction of our mother land.

    Yusuf Friday, 20 May 2022 11:54 AM

    Manusha and Harin have lost all respect and their political careers. Like SJB and JVP they should have supported all the good efforts of current govt. without accepting posts.
