It is plainly obvious to any student of SL politics that the defectors are not going to be the decision makers in the forthcoming elections. These defectors are under the false impression that they carry voting blocks along with them wherever they go. This attitude is similar to tribal chieftains and warlords in roaming desert tribes.
The Sri lankan voter clearly identifies these rudderless drifters, UPFA one day, UNP the other day and don’t know where they will be the following day. Only one thing matters to these driftiers and that is the personal benefit they get by aligning with power blocks. Those liquor licences and ethnol licences are valuable income generators, aren’t they?
