The quality of the leaders to be appointed to the so called leadership council makes me laugh. Any way they will only implement the decision taken by the sole proprietor of UNP, Ranil W.

As usual, the blind leading the blind story only in UNP. Looks like that the humiliating defeats in the past has still not given them the outright rejection message by the masses.

As someone says, all these clowns are mere jokers in front of a leadership banner.Once, the great party was destroyed by henchmen like Vajira, Sagala, Ravi, and Range Bandara. No one wants to see your faces. Please go home and save the party for future generations.

Now, whose faces are you eager to see on that list? I'm sure you want to see the deputy leader's face, don't you? To me, it feels like looking into a bowl of the Seven Adis.

Ohhhhhhh, Wijewardene, is in the news today. Let me peek into my crystal ball! If the UNP wants to take the reins of power, it's time for Wijewardena to take a detour to the back seat. Just like long ago when Gamini Dissanayake came back to the party and how RW took a back seat, let's ignite the same narrative for Premadasa. Trust me, folks, with this switcheroo, you'll all be champions in the game of politics!

Ruwan Wijewardane , really ? JR hijacked UNP from Senanayakas, then JR to his nephew RW now to RW's nephew Ruwan. Nepotism at its worst! Who wants to vote for UNP? SJB and SLPP in the same boat. JVP is good for nothing except criticising! We are stranded,

Think about the people who work for the ordinary public while being in the opposition without collecting funds from the salaries and pensions of MPs and used for the well-being of the people at the helm, by sending their children, abroad for their studies.

Who is the most suitable Gon Pin Batha? Qualifications: 1. Must be un elected in the past election. 2. Must be robbed a bank. 3. Must be able to tell lies - Dam lies - nonsense. 4. Must be a male with no partner. 5. Must be ready to play with the leader! If you fulfil all these certificated, then no problem!
