Dear Sir,
The UNP and Civil Society did that in 2015 and gave you the privilege of being the leader of a National Yahapalana Government.
But see what you have done to the dreams of the millions of voters who supported that initiative?
You were calling your partners in the National Government, names and you never worked with them.
You accused your partners of wrongdoing to show the country that you are Lilly-White.
You broke all the promises which you made (except for the 19A which was driven by RW) and now, you are boot licking your former enemies to continue in the Golden Chair for another 5 years.
Sir, we have had enough of you; please go and leave us in peace.
Cannot understand what he is trying say.
“ALL THOSE WHO LOVE THE COUNTRY SHOULD UNITEDLY FORM A MUCH NEEDED NATIONAL MOVEMENT”.
I looked hard, every nook and corner of the Island, North, South, East, West, all over the place; cannot locate even a single person ‘who loves the country’.
That National Movement you talk about will be an empty shell, dear Sir.
Note the fingers of the King and the ex-King.
They wear similar stone studded Gold rings !!
Glory to the Kings !!!
