Corrupt former members of the government are immensely worried about their future now, hence all these protests are being orchestrated by them with the hope that it will somehow lead to a situation where they might be able to avoid prosecution for their crimes.

They have come to protect Democracy. If it happened under Ranil, the youtuber and the policeman would be in custody, along with 100 protesters.

Pathetic crowd. May be around 150-200. Is this all the support that the so called joint opposition could muster for the protest????
