Mate Ranjan,
You are a real dreamer, my dear Pal.
Which election are you talking about?
Do you realise the SC may order Provincial Council elections on 23 Aug?
Mate Ranjan,
The King appears to be clever than your green leaders.
Dear Mr Ramanayake,
At the rate things are moving in the UNP, the Presidential Candidate is likely to be announced after the conclusion of the Presidential Elections in Dec 2019.
Oh yes, do it after the election. NO Hurry Buddy
How people can trust or work with such party if they cant even select a person within?
How they can trust to work with a such government too?
Hi Maaraya,
Thank you for agreeing with me.
SIRASA TV owned by Killi Maharaj, who hates RW, is trying to buy the UNP with the dumb head Son of RP as the Presidential Candidate.
Sad to see top leaders and the youthful leaders in the UNP fall for this trap.
Dear Ranjan,
The R Family and the King and SIRASA TV are sponsoring dumbhead Son of RP to cause confusion in UNP.
Sad to note youthful and educated leaders in the UNP have fallen into this trap.
However, the clever and cool RW will have the final say.
