Sajith will win without any coalition– in straight sets!
The time has come for younger leaders and NEW leadership in UNP and ALL political parties. The people of Lanka are fed up of Bondscam Ranil and his corrupt butterflies and his US citizen Rajapaksa partners in crime and corruption,
Time for US puppet Bondscam Ranil to get out, not even a hundred coalition partners will enable Ranil to win a Presidential Election.

Yes, Sri Lanka belongs to its youth and the younger generations.
The current corrupt and doddering generation of politicians who are dictators in their parties have looted and corrupted the country which is rotting like a fish from the Parliament down.
Ranil-Sira-the Jarapassa US citizen brothers- CBK and all the corrupt Muslim politicians, TNA and JVP who are all turning a blind eye to the fact that the US Special Operations Forces (SOF) and its Saudi friends are Weaponizing ethnic and religious conflict in Sri Lanka, and was behind the Easter Carnage while bribing these corrupt politicians must all be sent home or better to share the same Prison cell.

UNP,
So you have a constitution?
Do you have ethics? Let’s see:
1. Citizenship Act 1949, disenfranchised up country Tamils.
2. Initiated the Black July riots in 1983, against Tamils.
3. Conducted riots against Tamils 1977.
4. Abounding the Muslim ministers wholesale when false accusations were leveled against them, on terrorists, despite their support to the UNP, forcing them to resign en masse.

Where is the TNA?.
Is Sampathar sitting on the Fence while Dr Ranil and Keselwatta Kid are in the Fist Fight on the Boulder?..

“Is Sampathar sitting on the Fence while Dr Ranil and Keselwatta Kid are in the Fist Fight on the Boulder?..”
–
It is not fist fight but a pillow fight.
Don’t read too much into it.
By the way your other favourite kid Navin Nayakka has shown some interest in contesting presidential elections saying that at the Niyamgamdora temple in Kotmale “that he would try his best to realise his father’s dream”.
–
Whom are you going to support, Ranil, Gota, Navin, Kesselwatte kid, Kamal, Chamal, Dhinesh, ….?

Dear Native,
–
It is a Fight to Death , Mate..
–
After Uncle Karu betrayed the Sinhala Buddhist Faction of the UNP in October, And strengthened the Hand of the Muslim Faction, which delivered the Death Blow to the UNP Catholic Faction, Keslwatta Kid with that UNP Docile Mind Set has finally realized that the Premadasa name will be finally erased for good , when Dr Ranil gains the Presidency and form the next UNP Government with the All Ceylon Muslims plus Arab Muslims forming a grand Coalition after Easter.
-.
Even while Keslwatta Kid was handing out Samurdhi to the UNP Dalits , Muslims under Dr Ranil , made Millionaires out of Muslims with thousands of acres of land and other juicy Real Estate..
-.
Muslims were so powerful that they controlled 30 % of Dr Ranil’s UNP Cabinet for over Four yahapalana years.
After the Easter attacks made the disgruntled Catholics who love their Cardinal to detach themselves from Dr Ranil. Muslims now control 50% of Dr Ranil’s Cabinet.
–
What do you reckon Native?.. Will the Poodle club Baby Senasinghe back Keselwatta Kid?..
–
Will Sampathar sign a MOU with Bathudeen and the Kathathankuddy Mosque to retain his Trinco seat?…

Even much loved TNA and JVP are not there. Muslims parties taken together have more politicians than the UNP.. Two inaugurating political families can man handle Ranil and remove him easily. I heard some one asked how much political donations Muslims will give when the election comes. On the other hand, muslims mum and say we are not yet decided with respect to which party we should support. that is why SLPP NCM is delayed.

Last time Old King demanded too much Arabian commission, with the name of Donkey Trading. Rishard, who said earlier to take a jump to Joint Comedy, didn’t go after the commission negotiation.
The fear with Muslims leaders this time is they switch from UNP to ???????. Where Old King does want them to go? He doesn’t have a party. Old King is still washing the back of New King to hang in parliament. So the rats didn’t want to jump from not sunk UNP to already sunk SLFP. SLPP is not floating yet. August 11th, if New King is not firing Old Royals from SLFP, one day Chandrika is going to fire New King from SLFP. That time when he go to Thailand, he will have to buy a permanent house near to the Thailand Psychiatrist’s Clinique.

–
If Donkey Trading under Yahapalana Dr Ranil can can buy 3000 Acres in beautiful Beach side Kalpitiya, I don’t mind becoming even a Donkey groomer to at least get 40 perch block backing into the Lagoon to park my Dingy….
–
I know Sivajilingam has done a Galleon on Sampathar and his TNA , although Siva didn’t go below the belt to ask Sampathar whether Samptahr has got his OLs..
–
Who do you reckon your other mates, Vellala Judge Wigs and Suren Surendran will back.
–
BTW , on second thoughts I don’t think Sampathar has OLs, because my Elders tell me you could do anything with 8th grade in an Anglican School in them days..
Is it true Mally?..

james whating / July 31, 2019
if Sirisena makes it to final 2 victory is likely for him. 1951 is a good year to be born. both ranil and gota were born in 49 and if either contest against Sirisena they face defeat. both modi and khan were born between 50 and 52 and went on to win big.

Not much elaboration on the most critical topic: the LEADER OF THE FRONT. Only very briefly touched in Clauses 24 and 31. They lack clarity and even seem contradictory. And no mention whatsoever about the nomination of the presidential candidate. Is this a calculated silence? Is CASUS OMISSUS the other name for political games and backroom deal makiing?

Are the PEOPLE or should they be concerned and get interested on the “Constitution of Coalitions? These, “coalitions” will come and go. Let it be so. So far, our experiences show and have taught us that these are “Conglomerates” formed to “ROB” and “WASTE” the Tax Payers hard earned money and in no way to look into the welfare of the people. What the PEOPLE need is not “Constitutions of Coalitions”; but what the “POLICIES” and the “IMPLEMENTATION PLANS” of those policies. In addition and most importantly, WHO are those going to undertake the implementations. At the forthcoming elections, the most important consideration would be the answer to : WHO”. Of that answer to “WHO” this whole “GANG” of present and past who managed the affairs of Governing must definitely be KICKED OUT., because ALL of them have proved to us they are nothing but “ROGUES”. So please “FORGET” these “Coalition Constitutions” and STUDY the Policies and Action Plans together with those who come forward to implement the work plans , INTELLIGENTLY and INDEPENDENTLY before the vote is given. This is the last CHANCE, so don’t allow it to go by becoming “SLAVES” of these “MEGALOMANIACS, who organize into “Coalitions”. .

Upto now, SLFP or UNP could not establish a govt on their own. both were the same old bankrupt politics run by two individuals. So, R Pemadas was fooled to have a 15th amendment. since then UPFA and UNF – constitution meant Three wheeler parties. The next step common Candidate also did not work. It became a disaster. This time three wheeler parties as voting blocks will be powerful. there won’t be a National candidate. As overseas block votes are running Sri lanka, this time different block votes try to take over Sinhala politicians who are divided into groups. In the middle of that, some others are working for the same group but for their own ends. That is what they say too. they say “take as much as you want and help us too”. Pharmaceutical and Vaccine industry money working for the betterment of Sri lanka. This was in the planning stage for some time.

Good politicians are not popular. Popular politicians are not good. That is the predicament of SL presidential candidates.
On the other hand, SL wants a leader that will meet their personal preferences rather than a look at a leader that will wipe out corruption, build the future on the poor and middle classes and change the culture that will bind us to radical racial and religious leaders who can get presidential pardons and have state sponsored cover.

This guy Ranil made the middle class believe that he was a picture of honesty and straight behaviour. He looked down on village thugs like Rajapakses as chaps who were essentially dishonest and did not know how to behave decently in social circles.
Now we know the truth. Ranil is the biggest pretender of them all ! A complete rascal acting like a saint.
He is such a moral rogue that he even wrote a book on Buddhism ( yes apart from sovereign Bonds , parliament etiquette and deep economic matters Ranil is an expert on Buddhism too ! ) which is a philosophy talking of renunciation and letting go .

When ever bjp is in power in india, unp or unp lead coalitions manage to come to power.
Probably same thing may happen in next presidential election.
It is going to be a battle between
Family Party ( SLPP alias Rajapaksha Family Party) vs (Kind of) rich class party.
Similerities are both fronts are strong theives, greedy for power, protects each other ( never investigate any of the past killings, attacks ), both main party leaders are relatives and will come to support in worst situations (eg if any challenge comes to leadership, will support somehow).
Difference is in robbing pattern. Family party will rob and give it to family. (most of it ) while giving some to leaders at grassroot level to keep the village idiots with family party.
Rich class party will rob and share it only among the close friends (eg arjun, ravi etc.. ). Family parties best friend is china while rich class is willing to work with anyone as long as they get money. Will even take shit from anycountry for money.

All the summa business (Freebees)must stop if you are sincere in building this country except medical for the needy and Terminally ill patients.Free education must be turned to a interest free loan ( to.the.needy)to be paid once employed , same with housing according to their income.
Trade union strikes must be stopped and a triparty system to resolve must be brought.
Government housing must have 50% buddist and others according to their population percentage , people need to learn to live together before demanding the right for the recognition of multicultrslism , otherwise it will sound hypocritical .
do not interfere in any citizen’s choice of attire,dietry , religous rituals and beliefs if anyone dare to deny these basic rights that person and persons
alone will be held responsible for the monsters that come out of such actions

As Buddhism is not mentioned as cornerstone for all things natural to the Island, it can be deduced that the UNP will be run by minority cultures who have money from their wider cultural networks, afterwards of which Motherland will have to team up with the wider conglomerates for the next 1,000 years, viz. India and Saudi Arabia, to sustain all things abhorrent to the essential soul of the Motherland.

Buddhism is unnatural to this island and was imported to this island from South India in the first place.
The Sinhala Political Buddhism which is being practiced in this island for the past 100 or so years has been a good cover for the crooks, criminals, war criminals, racists, bigots, ……………….. to hide.

Well.’ Nation Democratic Alliance’ is by products of USA Embassy in Colombo consent given by State department of USA?
This is New Name of UNP bunch of culprits get together by aim of next incoming Elections in near future .
While UNP has lost all his political imaged, its credential and credibility NOT only among citizens of Sri Lankan by that has extended to even world-wide.
Take a example Central Back INSIDE trading of Bond scam is serious issue in Financial Market in globally has lost its credibility’s.
Therefor our nations has lost market Economy and development of capitalism by UNP leaders of Wiickrasimighe of Ranil that feudal clan, Malik Samrawickrama of Minster of international Trade , Kabir Hassan of ISIS ideologist of that current Chairman of UNP and Ravi Karuanayagam of ex-minster of Finance are key accuses for CB Bond scam involved in 2015 March and 2015 August .
Even until today Law of land has NOT reached to their door step by charging of CB Bond scam by Attorney General and Criminal Investigation of Police (CID) has not taken any actions for these politicians .
An Enforcement Authorities of AG and IGP ignored that leaders by UNP of RW CBK and MS by high-hand influences of power of STATE. Citizens and Nation voice of Democracy has lost for ever! under UNP regime !
