The message of Basil Rajapaksa entering Parliament as a national list MP has instilled fear among the members of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB), United National Party (UNP) and Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP). They are more scared than to coronavirus, SLPP National List MP Dilan Perera said.
Speaking to the media at the weekly media briefing yesterday, he said that, despite the current COVID issue and the recent fuel price hike, the main topic of the opposition and the media now is Basil Rajapaksa.
If a political opponent is afraid of the decision to appoint Basil Rajapaksa as a national list MP, he believes the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) made the correct decision.
"The SLPP has the right to appoint and change MPs. Therefore, Basil Rajapaksa, as the founder of the SLPP, the party has the right to appoint members of our party. The opposition seems disturbed by the decisions we take. If the political enemy is afraid of that decision, that means we have made the right decision," MP Perera said. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama)

I can well remember how you worshiped former president Mr. Maithripala Sirisena bent down to the ground and touching his feet when he gave the premiership to Mr, Mahinda Rajapakshe.

It should very clear if anyone loves his mother country and wants to have a seat in Parliament he must renounce his foreign citizenship and come to SL and work for the country taking over any responsibilities

what kind of rubbish is this fellow talking??? Why does the opposition fear him? have you gone nuts? They are talking the truth. As for the general public, Basil entering parliament is not worth the story you SLPP are telling.

This rouge is left with out nothing, so now like S B this fool too is playing the trumpet to Basil to get some thing in return.
Sokrates Wednesday, 30 June 2021 10:54 AM
Basil is a dangerous man, that shows his history as a war criminal. But who cares, even Gota and Mahinda are war criminals. It seems that this is now a prerequisite for getting into Parliament.
Sri Wickrema Wednesday, 30 June 2021 01:06 PM
But you will not get any ministerial post.
Ranjith Wednesday, 30 June 2021 01:10 PM

ranjit Wednesday, 30 June 2021 02:14 PM
Has he renounced his american citizenship?
Ram Wednesday, 30 June 2021 02:57 PM
Basil cannot enter Parliament on the 20A as the 2020 elections were held on the 19A. If the 20A gives retrospective effect to the relevant provision Basil can enter. 20A has not given any retrospective effect so Basil cannot enter
sam Panditha Wednesday, 30 June 2021 03:17 PM
Definitely worried. Country is bankrupt and old Mr 10% is now Mr 20%. He will expedite the demise
George Wednesday, 30 June 2021 07:09 PM
Bankrupt politicians speak nonsense. SLFP members are the slaves of this MR family. They don't have love for the country other than do spade work to MR family to get into parliament

Only JVP and SJB two parties where there are no crooks in the parliament.
