No one is above the constitution.

This crazy circus must go on for 2 more years so that people in this country learn a lesson that they will never forget in their lives. Let the poor die in queues and of hunger. We can thank the Raja's and the Wick's then. From island paradise to beggars of the world, and from developing country to stone age here we go.

The thieves are now hiding behind constitution, to swindle what ever left of Srilanka. Ranil, Namal etc have to disposed ASAP like Louis XVI for the country to recover.
Ramesh Wednesday, 13 July 2022 03:58 PM
How a resigned president can appoint an acting president? Does it mean GR is on vacation and RW looking after the business? Any idea when GR is back? Anyone please!

Any way Ranil has beaten other candidates for the vacant position such as AKD, SP etc
