JVP does not want country to recover under RW. They know that any such recovery would boost RW

Ranil Rajapaksa wants to carry on as if nothing happened. NPP decision is correct, hope others will also say no. People need an interim system with early election.

This sounds like desperation. Ranil is trying to stifle all meaningful criticism in parliament offering all to join together. Then the all part government can do any wrong, with no superstition to point out their poor activity. Ranil in charge of the military, who he used to suppress protest. Who will keep speaking up for change if all parties are together?

NPP are not prepared to act under your supremacy and hidden agendas in vain. Besides, they have diagnosed you well. My assertion is your All-party govt, I trust is a 'trap' or 'snare' to disable or paralyze the Opposition!

If Ranil is honest, he should take actions against Rajapaksa crooks who ruined the economy. He cannot please the crooks and JVP at the same time. JVP is right.

It is a great opportunity for them to get their voter base increased from 3 percent. Otherwise it will be 1 percent next time.

This supposed all party government is an eye wash to sustain power and perpetuate the deposed family rule if possible - so no firm plans for the Country only head hunting for unprincipled scalps !

Aragalaya youths should now look for a new educated honest person for the next president. They should form a new political party and select a set of well-educated people to send to office in the next election. At least half of the present MPs should be rejected in the next election. That is the only way to make a system change.

The NPP is the only party with a back bone to stand up to the corrupt Ranil Rajapaksa’s. All of you guys just wait till next election.

just ignore the 3%, they are only good at protesting, striking and regressive policies like ant privatization, free education that have no place in a modern world

Your last breath. Friday, 12 August 2022 11:37 AM

President Sir your true intention is to form cabinet only with Rajapakshas faithful servants. To hoodwink the masses you just request other parties to join a all party govt. Very soon you will pay for Rajapakshas sinful acts.

NPP, make hay while the sun shines. It is doubtful that you will be back in parliament next time . RW is one of the best brains with international recognition . You don't possess the acumen to lead a country.
