Police used water cannons and tear gas to disperse a group of protesters from the Joint Trade Unions and Civil Organisations at Borella a short while ago.

The Maligakanda Magistrate issued an order earlier preventing several trade unions from engaging in protests or demonstrations in several areas in the Maradana Police division, including Dean's Road, Kinsey Road and roads close to the National Hospital Square, causing inconvenience to the public and motorists from 10.30 am today till 10.00 am tomorrow.

Thank you Trade Unionists for your unending effort on behalf of the downtrodden working class, against the plundering of Ranil, after sparing the friends and henchmen.

Thank you for glorious Lanka Saturday, 29 July 2023 08:46 AM

Members of trade unions! Whom do you plan to bring to power in place of Ranil? Wimalaya? or Gommanpilla? or GL Pieris? Great! We will have a gala time! Why not Basil who can wipe the nation clean? He is most suitable for the job and will keep up the legacy of Rajapassas!
