Well he had to. Now Ranil will be the PM and heard that he is re appointing Ravi Karunanayaka as Finance Minister and Rajith will get the Minister of Health portfolio again. ‘Old Wine In same Old bottles’ I would say. The opposition TNA will continue to support RW government and HE Sirisena’s puppet show will continue. As we Sinhala people say ‘Ikbithi Siyalloma Sathutin Jeewath Wuha’ or ‘At the end everyone lived happily’.

Things not looking good. There’s likelihood losing representation in Parliament, loosing presidential elections in 2019 and losing parliamentary elections in 2020.
