SLFP Seniors Want Mahinda Sacked

A group of senior members of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) have urged President Maithripala Sirisena who is also the leader of the SLFP to sack former president and current MP, Kurunegala District, Mahinda Rajapaksa, Colombo Telegraph learns.

According to sources close to the President, the call has been prompted by Rajapaksa recently calling people to vote for the ‘pohottuwa’ (i.e. the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna or SLPP).

Those calling for the removal of Rajapaksa argue that the SLPP is opposed to the SLFP and that if Rajapaksa wants to support the SLPP then he cannot remain in the SLFP which is also contesting the forthcoming focal government election.

        Simon de Silva,

        Rajapaskha is not just a person. He represents the age old Sinhalese political struggle which stems from 1817 Uva rebellion. If you think by sending MR home you can quench it I think you are terribly mistaken. If there is no Mahinda then someone else will take his place.

            People are being oppressed irrespective of their race, region, religion, gender, …………………… The oppressed include Sinhalese, Buddhists, Tamils, Hindus, Muslims, Christians, ……………………… Our land is being grabbed mostly by the Sinhala/Buddhist land grabbers.

            Too many foreigners mostly descendants of Kallathonies and some of them are descendants of bogus asylum seekers, ………………..

            majority with minority what? The sinhalese have a very good understanding of the geo politics and they simply have an understanding of the threats they face as a community. You can call it in whatever you want..

            Sinhalese are in a similar situation like the Israelis and Sinhalese should understand they should stand like the Israelis or perish

            In fact Sinhalese are very LESS reponsive to the threats they face. That is why they wait until every problem comes to a point that requires BIG action. Sinhalese do not suffer from any minority complex but suffer from not being responsive to their environment.

            MR eliminated LTTE in a very shrewd manner. He defeated the PRO LTTE norwegians in a diplomatic coup extremely nicely. He beat them in their own game. He beat LTTE in their own game. In fact MR returned LTTE the same treatement LTTE treated previous admins. So kudos to MR..

            He did not inherit us huge debts. Our debt to GDP ration improved considerably under him. Just because your RW made a mess of it lately, we cant blame MR

            Samuel Jayaweera,

            So do you know him better than his family? Are you so sure that he’s a high criminal? Why don’t you go and file a case against him?

            You talk like that there was no debt before Mahinda came to office and such that Mahinda took a prospering country with no issues back in 2005.

            What is paradoxal of the Mahinda’s second half? It is far better than the Yahapalana 3 years we experience currently. It seems that you are on a pay roll of a foreign agency.

          Age old Sinhalese struggle! His ancestors betrayed the Sinhalese to the British and were given land. They were Veddah ancestry and jumped into the Govigamma in the 1850s bandwagon after they betrayed the Sinhalese and obtained land. He is married to a half Burgher Catholic who still is an ardent Catholic and a friend of racist Sinhalese cardinal Malcolm Ranjit, who cares two hoots for the plight of Tamil Catholics in the north and east . They all worship at Hindu shrines in India and he turned a blind eye when Muslim extremists and rogues were settling thousands of out of area Muslims at the Wilpattu sanctuary, on the pretext of settling Muslim IDPs(. IDPS indeed many were from places like Kurunegala.. ) With funds obtained from Porkistan Qatar and Saudi Arabia , to create Salafist/Wahhabi Islamic havens in the north that previously never existed. Whom are trying to fool?

          “1817 Uva rebellion”

          The real thing happened was Prince Duraisamy wanted to organize the a 2nd fight against Britain. Of cause he has to have collected troops in the Sinhala Neighborhood too. But again his troops betrayed him too, just the way they betrayed Wickrama Rajasingan. Colonist had an eye on this prince and used the Sinhala traitors to have him finished too. The Sinhala spies against Prince Duraisamy brought everything before even the bud started stem. Some of the traitors were British Mercenaries pretended with Duraiswamy. Hepptipola, mistook Colonist to suck-able Wickramarajasingan, fell apart from that clique, probably by failed commission negotiation, and was repossessed of his arms. Heppetipola, that time JVP Wijeweera, whom Shenal hates utmost, had physically deformed head. He was a sick person (may or may not be related to his deformed head) fell ill during the action and was easily captured and got the head cut off. Those days, by misinterpreting Darvin Mandel theories, the European who used to believe that they were superior human being possess extra ordinary creative, inventive heads by evolution, were fascinated by a person who had an extraordinarily big head (bigger than even Ranil or Shenal). They took it to Britain only because of their misunderstanding of science, but not by any extraordinary deed in a war. Now, they had no importance attached to that skull, returned it, a usual process in international relations, to Lankawe. Recently Jaffnahistory.com authors, the bald head, wrote these new stories they had forgotten even at the time of Anagarigam. New King decorated him as a (Rear or Front) Admirable.

          Shenal Just made a genuine error. She just wanted to say the legacy of Ehelepola, who rebelled against Tamil Pirapaharan’ ruling and sold the country to Chinese, is being still upheld by the Old and New Royals, with her blessing.

            Mahinda`s poor most likely Vedda ancestor was an informant to the British during the late 19th century anti-British local uprising in Hambantota. The information led to the capture of Karava Mudliyar Amadoru and other leaders. Shenalis/Shenal’s people were betrayed by Rajapakse’s ancestors. The Poor Tamil origin Karawa does not know this and worships him. The British rewarded the informant with the name Rajapakse, appointed him as an Arachchi , and granted him 600 acres of land at Hungama for his service. The area was Yak Veddah territory of Giruwa pattu and the name of the land was Degampotha. It was sold off in stages by Rajapakse Arachchi`s descendants to finance their indulgences leaving only Medamulana. This family adopted the Govigamma identity long after D. S. Senanayake and other aspiring political families.

        We need to see Sri Lanka be a progressive and the political system has to change to reflect the public ownership. All these days our political system inherited from few wealthy families. We don’t need to depend on a few families or few individuals. This lead to dictatorship, corruption, and misuse of power. Mahinda and Ranil enjoyed all the benefits of the system and they have to leave out of politics as the political leaders in USA or UK. Within the past 10 years the damaged caused by the war is much less than the damaged by corruption. Both UNP and SLFP failed because of their permanent dependence on Single leadership and they should leave from power and pave the way forward to energetic leadership who can take forward the country in a progress way.

      JVP has inconsistent political stand. They do political mistakes often. In 1994 they supported Chandrika then said she was bad. In 2004 they went again to form an allaince with her. Then 1 1/2 years later ditched the government through PTOM issue. In 2005 they supported Mahinda whole heartedly but they said he was the cause of all evil. In 2010 they supported Fonny. But, ditched him later. In 2015 they supported M3 but now blaming him for impotence.

      How do we trust JVP?

          “please note all human beings make mistakes. JVP too did: why do you want to hold the grudge for it..”

          JVP was born out of mistakes. Its past is full of mistakes. It is irrelevant and its policies are outdated. It is reluctant to own up its mistakes, refused to apologize and it is too proud to beg pardon.

          If its judgement is wrong it is okay however its intentions are evil.

          What is JVP’s position on War Crimes being committed from 5th April 1971 to Jan 2015?

          Is it still cleverly sitting on the fence and acting like an Eel?

              Why worry about Buddhism mate? Does Sri Lanka bar you from pursuing your religious beliefs just because Buddhism has foremost place in Sri Lanka constitution? Does Sinhalese come and tear down your Temples? Does Sinhalese complain about Kovils are being erected in Sinhala areas? What makes you people itchy about the Buddhist issue? Sri Lanka is a small country mate. Sinhalese are a small ethnic group we have our own customs and we would like to keep them for our future generations. Why can’t you people understand it? Why can’t you tolerate us?

                Sinhalese do not complain as Tamils legally purchase these lands and build kovils and moreover the Sinhalese also worship in these kovils. However in the Tamil areas Sinhalese are building Buddhist temples on ethnically cleansed Tamil lands and on the ruins of Hindu temples, that were destroyed by the Sri Lankan armed forces or a using false history and faked up artifacts to convert Hindu temples into Buddhist. This is why Tamils complain. Do not try to distort the truth racist Karawa woman of recent South Indian ancestry

                  Atleast Sinhalese do not have pervasive laws like “Thesawalamai” which enabled the rich Tamils to buy property in Southern areas.

                  There are no exclusive Tamils lands in Sri Lanka. The land is ultimately the property of the Sri Lankan state government. Why can’t you understand that?

                  There was a Buddhist archaeological site buldozered by a Hindu priests. No one even talked about that but you talk about Sri Lankan army destroying Hindu temples. Show me one such example?

                  If you don’t like Sri Lankan history, why don’t you migrate to a country where you find a better history which suites your wishes?

This land is not the sole preserve of the Sinhalese , who by the way are largely descended from immigrant Tamil low castes and ruled by immigrant Tamil upper castes, now all beating the anti Tamil drum. “Show me examples of there the armed forces destroyed Hindu temples.” Mad racist immigrant Indian Tamil origin Karawa woman whose family name Waduge betrays your South Indian origin google and read before posting your racist crap here.

Why do you agree with her. Go and read the plight of the Sinhalese Dalits , The modern day Karawa, Durawa, Salagama,Berava Rodi, Hunu castes. Discrimination in Sinhalese society . Professor K.M De Silva’s history of Sri Lanka and the migration of the Karawa, Salagamma , Durawa castes to Sri Lanka from South India( meaning the then Tamil country in India) between the 15Th and 17Th centuries and how the so called Govigamma and other castes discriminated them. My reply to her is in context of what this Sinhalese racist who equally hates your fake Arab immigrant Dravidian Tamil Muslim community from South India.

                      Furthermore, The lands of Sri Lanka are sole property of the people of the country who believes in it other than the ones who want a exclusive separate country based on their language and religion.

                Shenali the stupid sach, Nuisance, Sumanasekere …………. all put together

                “Why worry about Buddhism mate?”

                Perhaps Uthungan is worried.
                The crooks and war criminals in the parliament have used and abused Buddhism for their own interest, cover up their mistakes, human right violation, large scale theft, murder, rape, abuse of power with impunity, money laundering, war crimes, nepotism, …………. which may lead to the complete destruction of the teaching of the awakened one, and replace it by Sinhala/Buddhism.

                If people truly follow what Buddha taught there is no need for the inclusion of CHAPTER II in respect of BUDDHISM in your rotten constitution which states:

                The Republic of Sri Lanka shall give to Buddhism the
                foremost place and accordingly it shall be the duty of the State
                to protect and foster the Buddha Sasana, while assuring to all
                religions the rights granted by Articles 10 and 14(1)(e).

                “Does Sinhalese come and tear down your Temples?”

                Sinhala/Buddhists state usually takes over the entire surrounding area and artificially make it “sacred place” so that it diminishes the cultural importance of people of other religion, becomes another tourist spot, loses its it spiritual significance.

                “What makes you people itchy about the Buddhist issue?”

                Madu is known to all Sri Lankans as a Christian Holy place. Now arrangements are being made to expand Army built small Buddhas shrine into a large Vihare as if the Buddhist have nowhere to pray Buddha.

                “Does Sinhalese complain about Kovils are being erected in Sinhala areas?”

                Sinhalese and Buddhists regularly visit kovils to bribe Hindu Gods.

                ” Sri Lanka is a small country mate. Sinhalese are a small ethnic group we have our own customs and we would like to keep them for our future generations.”

                What are your customs? If Sinhalese are a small ethnic group their survival as a people depends on the goodwill of others, and not on your politicised crooks or war criminals.

                  What is that racist Cardinal Malcolm Ranjit doing about this. He does not care as he considers this a Tamil Catholic Church and not in the Sinhalese south. Most probably writing to the Vatican with some cock and bull story that there was an ancient Sinhalese Buddhist temple and settlement there. This is what these Sinhalese racists extremists , government and armed forces do. When ever they want to steal strategic Tami lands , Hindu temples and now Christian churches , they first install a small Buddha statue there and then the Sinhalese army and police guard this statue from the local Tamils. Then a Buddhist monk or two arrive and with some Buddhist artifacts , followed by the department of archeology( that is manned by Sinhalese racists) and claim the land temple or church as some ancient Sinhalese Buddhist site and show these artifacts , as proof of this. Just like what is happening to many Hindu temples in Tricomalee. We all saw the video of the disgraceful behaviour of the Governor’s racist cow at a Hindu temple , that they are now claiming to be Buddhist. She was threatening the Tamil Veddah devotees , when they requested to remove her slippers and then started to poke fun of the Hindu deities. This is the so called Sinhalese elite. They cannot deny it as it is all on video with the police and Sinhalese government officials watching the fun

                    Real Siva,

                    Recently there was a grave incident happened in Sampur. An ancient Buddhist archaeological site had been destroyed by some vandals. For some time now you and your Tamil lackies in CT are claiming that the ancient archaeological sites in North and East belong to Tamil culture. So why no Tamil ever came out to condemn this nefarious action? Is it because that Tamils have no connection with these archaeological sites as you claim there is? The action speak aloud that the words my friend.

                    P.S and also I have searched the internet regarding Sinhala army destroying Hindu temples and their were no result for such search. I believe that you lied out right again.

                  Native Veddha,

                  Buddha didn’t expect everyone to follow his teaching nor he wanted to meddle with political matters. We don’t care what Buddha taught when it comes to politics. It is a whole different ball game. You must first get your facts correct.

                  I was born Catholic and I know personally who Christianity and Buddhism co-exist peacefully in Sri Lanka. There is no problem in building a Buddhist shrine in Madu church. A church is not a special place where no other person with a different religious background cannot walk.

                  Sinhalese have survived the so called “Good will” of it’s neighbours for more than 2500 years. We don’t think it is difficult for us to repeat it again and we don’t need to appease Hindus for our survival. If Hindu’s can’t live here they should go to India.

                    If so what is Chapter II doing in the Constitution?

                    ” We don’t care what Buddha taught when it comes to politics. It is a whole different ball game. You must first get your facts correct.”

                    Facts are sacred and safe with me. However get your head checked before you start talking about history, Buddhist history, and Sinhala/Buddhist fascist history.

                    “I was born Catholic and I know personally who Christianity and Buddhism co-exist peacefully in Sri Lanka.”

                    Maybe true until about Kottehena (1883) first reported religious riots, since then gradually the Sinhala/Buddhist fascist grew bolder and developed penchant for riots and taste for blood. Buddha’s teaching went with the wind when the public racist Aryan Anagarika Homeless Dharmapala came into the scene. You ought to remember those frequent riots in organised by Sinhala/Buddhist fascists and their manic preacher monks better known as saffron clad thugs. Subsequent riots, Kalutara (1896), Anuradhapura (1903), 1915, 1958, 1960, 1961, 1971, 1977, 1981, 1983, …… 1987-1990 and the 30 years of mass killing and Aluthgama riots showed the desperation and intensity of the growing fascination with Sinhal/Buddhist fascism.

                    ” There is no problem in building a Buddhist shrine in Madu church.”

                    Now Buddhists have to question not only your judgement, intentions but also your sanity.

                    “Sinhalese have survived the so called “Good will” of it’s neighbours for more than 2500 years.”

                    Well without the neighbour’s population influx and import of their cultural products, music, language, …… there would not be a people known as Sinhalese. You ought to be grateful to your great grand parents who came here as Vellaikarar (mercenaries) from South India.

                      Evidence states the earliest inhabitants of the island were the Nagas and Yakkas. The Nagas practiced an early form of Hinduism that worshipped Lord Shiva and serpents. This form of animistic Shaivism is common in Tamil Nadu and other parts of India. The Nagas who inhabited the Jaffna Peninsula were probably the ancestors of Sri Lankan Tamils. The Nagas started to assimilate to Tamil language and culture in the 3rd century BCE, and lost their separate identity. The Nainativu Nagapooshani Amman Temple in Nainativu is believed to be one of the prominent 64 Shakti Peethams.. Hinduism was probably the dominant religion in Sri Lanka before the arrival of Buddhism in the 3rd century BC. Buddhism was introduced into Sri Lanka . Ample evidence of this is are the five Iswarams and Kathikamam in the deep south

              “the National Question?”

              What national question? As far as JVP is concerned there is no such question. Every little problem is caused by products and reflections of material conditions, if one uses dialectical materialism to diagnose and understand the non issue.

              Therefore the JVP glad to tell you it will adapt a large part of Mahawamsam, Marxism and a dose of Maoism, in its proposed constitution and deal with non-issues. JVP guarantees equality. So what is your non existent problem?

              “Buddhism given foremost place in the Constitution.”

              The JVP is secular. As long as Sinhala/Buddhism works as a good hiding place for crooks, war criminals, ………… the party is not only committed to keeping chapter II in the constitution but also strengthening it with more Sinhala/Buddhism.

            If there were war crimes in SL, they were committed by your Sun God Prabakaran aided and abetted by Rudrakumar, and the Tamil diaspora.
            Those crimes have to be investigated dealt with.

          Sinhalese pundit,

          JVP has not stopped making mistakes. Their every political action turned out to be mistake. This is not my claim. They them selves claim it. How can we vote for a political party who does mistakes regularly and takes no attempt to remedy them.

          How can we be sure that JVP is not a corruption free party. There are numerous allegations coming from different people that they have given money to JVP for political works. Also there is that rumor of AKD’s mistress in Dublin. This shows there double standard.

          We have voted for the JVP once in 2004 and provided them with 41 seats in the parlement. But they didn’t even consider the people who has voted them and abandoned them. How can we vote for them again?

          JVP was the first organisation introduced terrorism and twice took arms against Srilankan military. I don’t know why they took up terrorism and can you justify the reasons for their terrorism. There is a valid reason for LTTE took up terrorism and the reasons remain unresolved. Still LTTE is banned in Srilanka but not JVP. JVP should tell openly about what is their stand on Buddhism in the constitution, solution to the Tamil problem, what will they do to clean up the corrupts? Will they keep the same constitution or change it? Will they take actions against Mahinda family, Ranil etc?

      The Rajapaksas family should step down from politics and let more educated citizens who want to truly work towards bettering the country to take over. Warning to all corrupt politicians who are in it to get rich by plundering the nation, your time is over…

      Step down or get exposed for what you truly are by the citizens of this country.

      If a party is nominating criminals, gangsters, rapists or any shady individuals don’t vote for them.

      Vote for the parties who field clean candidates to send a clear message to all parties who nominate criminals/gangsters/underworld candidates.

      Repeat at the next election too.

        They will make sure that deserving highly qualified and capable individuals get nominated Only if you stop voting for parties who nominate criminals and gangsters.

        Your vote has the power to force political parties to field qualified clean capable qualitative candidates.

        Only if the public demands for these changes will they happen.

      Real SLFP seniors have no backbone whatever being said and done.

      If it was in a country where law and order would be above everything, Rajapakshes have long been in their prison cells.

      There is no leader that has perpetrated crimes in humanity as Rajapakshes … in recent past.
      He even celebrated calculated life losses of own citzenes.

      he even celebrated having killed journalists and other men on his underground net works.

      He even tremoured the lakderana by allowing his bastard sons to run motor car, night car races on the people s costs.

      hE EVEN ABUSED srilanken airlines as it cant breath in anymore. today
      He is the most abusive of all leaders we the srilankens ever had.

      But not to forget, the bugger et al spread mithayaawa in order to abuse the nation forever.
      WHAT HAPPENED TO DITTA DAMMA WEEEDANIIYA KARAMA IF BUDDHIST VALUES SAY RIGHT:

      my cry is when would this buggers be PUNISHED ? Plese god get them all at once to a prison cell.

      Upto the point. The SLFP has never been a organised political party and does not either has or work according to clear principles or policies. Its existence solely depends on prominent persons who by chance assumed leadership from time to time. The UNP is well known from its corrupt administration whenever it is in power and serving only the interests of the rich class. Both these parties are the cause for all the divisions among the people on language, religious and communal lines. These parties will never build a united Sri Lanka. It is the JVP can do it. People must support the JVP.

      JVP (including the splinter group, Peratugami) is responsible for two armed insurrections, in 1971 and then towards the end of 1980s. In the latter insurrection, they unleashed a terror campaign against civillians who did not endorse the JVP policies. I personally know a half a dozen men who were tortured and killed by the JVP. None of those victims were connected with armed forces: some of those were village level UNPers, and one even a Communist party man! So far JVP has neither renounced violence nor expressed its regrets for the terrorist activities. Unless they accept the blood in their hands and renounce any further violence, their promises of a Utopian future cannot be taken seriously.

    This Shows how the Punnakku eating donkeys were given power to rule the country.
    He should never have been given the chance to return to Politics let alone how the Bugger , his family and his Cohorts were given platform to destroy the present government.
    These are crooks awaiting to be charged with hundreds of Corruptions and Crimes committed during their Heydays!
    Whose Fault??
    RW and MS should take the blame and kept quiet while concentrating on importing Luxury vehicles on State expenses for themselves.
    It was all a free ride for the GG/ Yahapalanaya.
    Allowed Mega crooks to Bully the Hamuduruwos and the public.

      Analyst you really read my thoughts.

      Thanks. Pal…

      I think Yahapalanaya can not be implemented to lanka.

      It is like people cant be without of ASTROLOGY… over 90% lankens are after Astro or other kind of blatant lies. –

      Hamudurowos have become like vehicles in EPIDEMIES in lanken racial politics/spread. But buddhas teachings lie somewhere else.

      Why is that ?

      Meaning DENGUE to spread out, particular mosquitoes should be there.

      In lanken vicious politics and all kind of racial issues, Hamudurwos are the vehicles.

      So long we would not come clear with them, nothing like anything towards betterment of the country/nation would be the case.

    You need guys with balls to take tough decisions.

    Unfortunately SLFP exco have no one of that type and hence MARA and his joint opposition gang will not be sacked.

    Similarly UNP exco also have no one with balls and hence people like Ravi K will survive. Also idiots like John Ameratunge continue since no pressure to resign.

    In addition moron voters bring these beggars to power election after election. This is the repercussions of a welfare society created by the politicians since average voter is dependent on state for their Samurdhi payment and govt jobs for survival.

    Even educated politicians like Harsha and Eran simply tow the line to please the leadership.

    This is the actual situation if politics in SL.

    These guys all thrive on tax payers money.

      Disgusted,

      I too like Harsha and Erand in lanken politics.
      But they need more experience in lanken politics. Dont you think so ?

      They will perform much better in the futrure of this country. They are the ones for future . And few JVPrs are also good at their performances. But most among JVPrs are rotten ones with inferiority complex. The reasons has been their family backgrounds.
      Most of JVPrs come from rural isolated backgrounds.

      Like it is the case within lanken universities, with ones coming from popular schools being attacked by more raggings, rural lankens int he country are against urban lankens.
      That is there in thier blood

    Perhaps,these Senior members of the SLFP must read out Julius Caesar to President Maithripala Sirisena.
    ………There is a tide in the affairs of men,which, taken at the flood,leads onto fortune;
    Omitted,all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries.
    On such a full sea we are now afloat,and we must take the current when it serves,or lose our ventures……..

    Now serving all the senior of SLFPers are losers. They were chased away by the popular vote but thanks to their licking power of MS, they came to the govt through the back door and are holding ministerial posts. What sort of moral right do they have to have such a proposal? Should not they sacked MS first for his betrayal to the party in late 2014? Instead, they should hand over the full control of the administration to the UNP!

    I suppose it’s only in SL that a person can be a member of a party, get elected under the same (affiliated?) party & while in it, go on to form another party which is critical of the party he is in, or have I got it wrong? I am confused.

    Vote for JVP. What for? Don’t forget the damage done by them all these years. In addition to 1971 and 1989 they created enough problems for all the governments by organising strikes and protests. How can we pardon them for joining with GMOA to harass poor people? With 6 MPs in the parliament, they can act as the most noble representatives. Game starts only when nos. go up to hundreds. Other thing is JVP’s arch-enemy, its breakaway group Peratugamis will play hell with them if JVP comes into power. (That is the only thing both groups can do). Country will have to stick with the two main parties which should be led by genuine and honest persons who can be raised to the level of Statesmen.

    Who are these seniors? Just don’t create stories!
    If My3 could contest against the SLFP candidate at the 2015 Presidential election while being a SLFP senior member, why can not MR support another party at the upcoming local government elections? He is not even contesting here; he is extending his support, because there is no other way for the people of this country to teach a lesson to thieves of the Yahapalanaya. Look at the Bond scam; look how slavishly My3 is trying to save his buddy RW’s political soul by playing down his direct involvement in the scam. Look at his statement; the English version is different from the Sinhala. Whom is he trying to fool? Us! Give me a break!
    And look at CB! She has been supporting the UNP even since she started getting paid by $$$ but where have been these so called ‘seniors’ all that time? Some who write to CT think that the readers are dumb. That’s the problem here!
