Defeat is also a victory: MR
MIRROR AI
⏳ Generating summary…
Former President and MP Mahinda Rajapaksa said the defeat of the No-Confidence Motion against Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe is also a victory.
Speaking to journalists outside the Parliament Chamber, Mr. Rajapaksa said the result would have been changed if all SLFP MPs voted in favour of the motion.
"First we had only 54 votes. However, this was increased to 76 during the vote," he said.

This is the result Mahinda wanted. Ranil as the PM will make it easy for the JO to win the next election. Also the NC motion exposed the SLFP MP's who voted for Ranil and will be an easy target for the JO at the next elections.

Sir, I don't get your math. First you say, increasing 54 to 76 is a Victory against 122. Then you say, "if all SLFP MPs had voted, the result would have changed". Really, even if all Absentees had voted, 76 26 = 102, is still less than 122.
