UNP MP Ranjan Ramanayake yesterday told the Daily News that they would oppose characters such as Senanayake, who are in the habit of crossing over to other parties at any given opportunity, must not be given any ministerial portfolios.
“Besides Wasantha Senanayake is an MP rejected by the public for his lack of commitment to anyone or any thing,” he added.
