The Joint Opposition today said several stalwarts of United National Party (UNP) had started signing for the No-Confidence Motion, which was to be brought against Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe.

Joint Opposition member MP Mahindananda Aluthgamage told a news conference that they would support for the No-Confidence Motion against Prime Minister Wickremesinghe and it would be presented in Parliament in the coming days.

“Earlier we have planned to bring a No-Confidence Motion against Prime Minister Wickremesinghe however it was delayed.

“We will sign for the No-Confidence Motion and would remove Prime Minister Wickremesinghe from his post,” he said.

He said the most significant fact was that powerful members attached to the UNP would support the No-Confidence Motion and added that they were currently signing it. (Kalathma Jayawardhane)

You guys are so scared to Ranil as very soon SF will be appointed as the Law and Order Minister and all of you (JO looters) will be caught and put in to Jail. correct...

Mr Lawry, what stability you are talking? The existing administration is worse than stick in the mud and no body has to destabilize it any more. Get out from the shell, and from Feb 10, 2018, tribal political does not exist any more in this country. We, the voters are not fools any more!

The UNP seniors sign the no confidence motion is welcome by majority grassroot level UNP supports. This does not mean the UNP members are with the JO. The RW camp and MR camp are a bunch of rouges.

They will sign but at voting they will ensure it to fail. They are protected as long as Raniel is there as the leader. If they have a chance to defeat the government then they will vote.

Take the steps from bottom up. NC motion against RK first and RW followed by MS would be more appropriate.

Mr Aluth Village man, you dont understand as usual. The no confidence is at party (UNP) leadership level and not at govt level for PM. So dont smak your big lips and get excited.

You are already expelled from Politics, the recent Local Govt. election proved it clearly as your guys lost very badly. Now the next step - be prepared to count the iron bars at Welikade.
