An All-Party government will not succeed as seniors in political parties will become cabinet ministers in such an eventuality thus creating divisions, SJB MP Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka told Parliament today.

“It is better if a group who could work in unity takes over the government. If people reject a government, an alternative group in the opposition should form a government. Therefore such a group should be bold enough to take over,” Fonseka said.

“Talks are held from morning till evening. Power hungry people shouldn't use tear gas on people who are expected to take to the streets on July 9. Many will be killed if that happens as many will get trampled in the melee,” he said. (Yohan Perera and Ajith Siriwardana)

    If there is no peace on the streets and many die due to violence then we give inadvertently options to foreign nations to interfere and bring about peace.

    Yes , they will fight with each other for portfolios. Portfolios mean, money making opportunities. All these guys are same.

    Certainly it will happen. No use of having a all party government.

    If you want to recover, do not allow Rajapaksas, Sirisenas, SLFP fellows, Ranils, Wimals, Gammanpilas, Vasus, SB Dissas, Wimals, Susils, Wijedasas in any positions. They are pure trouble makers.

    Yeah, you are quite right, WHITE-FLAG-TRAITOR like you are still serving in the PARLIAMENT enjoying and wasting public money, no government would be able to run smoothly in the future.

    I totally agree with SF. Today our senior politicians are after power. What we need today is good people who can take our country forward.
