They have spent lots of money buying suits to pose for the election photo’s (which is standard all over) better have it fast so that they could recover the money spent. Also people are now forgetting the ‘direction’ they were showing!

You all could protest as much you want but nothing going to happen unless our leader agrees to it.

Yes when the leader hears the word "ELECTION" he is purging because he knows he can't win as he has destroyed his own party as well

Protesting doesn't make the slightest bit of difference !. They are simply wasting their time on these protests. Mr Ranil W is a hardened cunning politician and he would not budge an inch.

LG polls bring nothing but Rupees Ten billion down the drain. Get rid of this Killer Presidential system and save Rupees 10 billion. Let us have the Parliamentary Election with a new Electoral System to save this Country.

These people must be hailed for protesting the action of the despotic government which curtails the democratic right of the people for an election. How long Ranil can postpone the election is yet to be seen .

On the issue of postponement of election main opposition party SJB which was very aggressive of calling for election is very silent in these days. It looks that they have realized that NPP is gaining the ground by the day.

It's Democrazy But again 6.9 million are the real culprits. Don't blame the leaders They were elected by eligible voters.
