Since two days he refers to Maithrilpala Sirisena as \u201cSrimath\u201d (\u201cSir\u201d). There was a Big Premadasa calling himself \u201cSrimath\u201d, sitting on a custom made throne before the era of this Little Premadasa. Prior to the current political windfall Sajith was sitting on a Nilkamal chair playing a game called \u201cTall for security- short for laborer\u201d? All these faces remind us of the doom that we await.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dear readers, savor the Supreme Court verdict today. Because tomorrow is another day.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This victory will be your victory till tomorrow. Tomorrow the UNP will claim this to be their victory alone. They will build their new kleptocracy with wheeler dealers like Ravi Karunanayake, Wijeyadasa Rajapakshe, Wasantha Senanayake and<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Rajitha Senaratne to enthrone them, justifying themselves through the court verdict.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The Rajapskas Will Be Punished : Never<\/b><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Even if a new government will be formed under the UNP in due course, the Rajapaksas will never be brought to rule. Thajudeen will be buried 12 feet under along with the tears of his parents who die a thousand deaths. Shiranthi Rajapaksa, who is connected to this murder will never stay a single day in a prison cell. The only person who emerged victorious from this shameless Yahapalana regime is Hiruniika, the daughter of Bharatha Laxman Premachandra who died causing the death of a man in the rival gang. We are made to forget that another man died in this confrontation. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In their three year rule so far, the Yahapalana government has not shown any real respect for the law, public administration nor rule of law. Although they lay claim to the \u201cGood Governance We Gave You!\u201d, if not for Maithripala Sirisena there would be no independent judiciary, 19<sup>th<\/sup> Amendment or Right to Information Act.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow, the UNP will claim the court verdict. The people will be soon removed from the mega hall of the Temple Trees that will be cleaned to five star standards. If Chathura Senaratne wishes to marry there again there will be no one to stop him. Because tomorrow, the most corrupt Rajitha Senaratne will be most powerful .The supporters of the UNP and the citizens who protected the UNP for good 50 days will be forgotten. Because in the anatomy of the UNP runs the despotic, unruly, corrupt blood.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Perhaps till their mega rally at the Galle Face finishes on the 17<sup>th<\/sup>, the UNP might treat us all humans. But never, ever will the UNP deliver us from political suppression.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Fleas Of A Kleptocracy<\/b><\/p>\n<p>On 26<sup>th<\/sup> October 2018 the greatest betrayal of<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>the peoples\u2019 mandate occurred. Honestly, none of us, not even the vast majority of politicians knew of the coup. It shattered our sense of decency. From that day on,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>for a full week, I wrote an article a day, resisting this act of indecency. I attended each and every street protest, rain or shine during the last 50 days.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I who did all that am penning this harsh article because of the TV Program I accidentally stumbled in to on the 9<sup>th<\/sup> of December on TNL TV. One day prior to the crucial judgment on the dissolution of the parliament 10th of December (later the day of judgment was postponed to the 13<sup>th<\/sup> of December), TNL, the only TV channel to platform the views of the UNP and the democratic forces telecast a program called Janahanda on the constitutional crisis. TNL TV is owned by Shan Wickremesinghe, brother of Ranil Wickremesinghe. I was stunned to note that the man sitting to the left of Sunil Watawala, representing the JVP, was the fake director of Sri Jayewardenepura General Hospital (SJGH) (Dr?) <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.colombotelegraph.com\/?s=Susitha+Senarante+\">Susitha Senaratne<\/a><\/strong>! Susitha Senaratne is a condemned individual infamous for holding an illegal appointment of Director SJGH by political force since 2015. Majority of the mainstream newspapers, alternate media such a Ravaya, websites such as the Colombo Telegraph have all repeatedly exposed the illegal occupation of the post by this man without as much a letter of appointment. Susitha Senaratne is nothing but a flea latched on to the mega political hound dog Rajitha Senaratne.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>The auditor general of Sri Lanka and the COPE have both called out this act of irregularity and Susitha Senaratne has survived with the blessing of Rajitha Senaratne and three consecutive and corrupt Secretaries of the Ministry of Health.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>How do you like the media ethics of Shan Wickremesinghe? Do you think they will do decent politics tomorrow?<\/p>\n<p>Dear readers, brace yourselves. And don\u2019t forget savor the Supreme Court decision while you can because tomorrow hound dogs like Rajitha and their pups like Chathura, complete with the fleas like Susitha Senaratne are due to emerge .<\/p>\n<p><b>This Is Just One Example<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Following this TV program I went back and read all the articles on Colombo Telegraph related to Susitha Senaratne. This condemned doctor is simply a man who parachuted in to the UNP political scenes. He contributed to the corruption of Rajitha Senaratne. He hobnobbed with politicians such as Patali Champika Ranawaka and other powerful politicians. He made sure he posed with politicians in selfies and photos wherever he went. Basically he played the role of the backyard dog who loiters. Without a single professional or academic qualification he got himself \u201cappointed\u201d Director SJGH, has continued to occupy. He has survived without an administrative or legal basis to do so, for 3 years.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>Dear Readers, who does this man remind you of?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Reminds you of Mahinda Rajapaksa, doesn\u2019t he?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Didn\u2019t Mahinda Rajapaksa \u201cassume duties&#8221; on the 26<sup>th<\/sup> of October, the same way?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Two employees of SJGH who have challenged the appointment of Susitha Senaratne in the court of appeal. It is a twist of fate that the same judges, namely Justice Surasena and Justice Obeysekera who suspended the premiership of Mahinda Rajapaksa suspended the attendance of Susitha Senaratne at the SJGH Board in an interim verdict recognizing that Senaratne was not qualified to hold his office.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>However, Athula Kahandaliyanage, the Chairman of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.colombotelegraph.com\/?s=SJGH\">SJGH<\/a><\/strong>, an indiscriminate stooge of anyone political be it Ranil- Maithripala, Mahinda \u2013Rajitha bungled the implementation of the court order, in contempt. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It is <b>THIS<\/b> Susitha Senaratne who is contempt of the court presided by Justice Surasena and Justice Obeysekera who was brought in by Shan Wickremesinghe to criticize Mahinda Rajapaksa! The <b>SAME<\/b> Susitha Senaratne, suspended at the <b>SAME<\/b> Court of Appeal before the <b>SAME <\/b>judges was ushered in to insult Mahinda Rajapakse who was suspended at the <b>SAME <\/b>court by the <b>SAME<\/b> judges! Talk about bringing in the kettle to call the pot black.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>How do you now like the \u201crespect&#8221; the UNP has for the judiciary?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Throughout the program Susitha Senaratne brags and brags like a child.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>It\u2019s almost as if he single handedly appointed the President and the PM! He boasts that he was the protector of the President\u2019s former residence on the eve of the Presidential election. He must imagine that the viewers are donkeys. Partaking in this brand of politics is explicitly forbidden to a government servant of his designation. Did the acting Chairman of SJGH Dr Anil Jasinghe authorize this appearance where Senaratne was introduced as the Director of SJGH? Did the SLMC authorize this appearance where he was also introduced as a representative of the SLMC?<\/p>\n<p>Dear Readers, see where the UNP places a corrupt rogue. How to you like the morals of the UNP?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>All I want to know is whether Shan Wickremesinghe\u2019s TLN is any better than Derana and Hiru TV?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>By featuring this man trying to teach the law to the same judiciary that suspended him, the UNP and TNL have insulted the judiciary. God help democracy, will of the people and the independent judiciary under the UNP!<\/p>\n<p>This is but one example.<\/p>\n<p>This is the nature of the UNP. The UNP no longer has space for democracy or decency. This flea called Susitha Senaratne is a parasite of Shan Wickremesinghe and the UNP.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Is this then the \u201cculture&#8221; of the UNP? They should be ashamed. As much as stooges like Shiral Lakthilake brought doom to Maithripala Sirisena, similar parasites like Susitha Senarate will spell doom for the likes of Ranil and Rajitha who do not realize this in their state of ecstasy. Susitha Senaratne is an insignificant flea for now. But a flee feeds on blood.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>JVP, Anura, Wake Up!!!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The most laughable behavior was of Sunil Watawala representing the JVP at this program. Repeatedly referring to documents from the Petroleum Corporation, he kept calling a wannabe appointee as a \u201clap dog\u201d of Mahinda Rajapaksa. Didn\u2019t he know that the man sitting next to him, Susitha Senarante was the ultimate lap dog of Rajitha Senaratne? Didn\u2019t he know that this lap dog has unjustly caused the interdiction of two JVP activists, resulting, in tern his own suspension of his attendance at the SJGH board by the Court of Appeal? Doesn\u2019t the JVP , a party with iron discipline enquire in to who the panelists are when sending their representative to a TV program?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We can understand how the UNP sent this corrupt and condemned man to this program. After all it is the same UNP who ensured the safe passage of the greatest bond scammer in our history Arjun Mahendran to Singapore. UNP is the party of the corrupt. So we understand.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>But what about the JVP? What pact does Anura Kumara Dissanayake have with the TNL to feature their representative alongside Susitha Senarante to buttress his reputation as a soldier for democracy? What is the motive behind Sunil Watawala sharing the same media platform with Susitha Senaratne on TV when Senaratne\u2019s corrupt caliber is well known? On what ethical ground has Watawala done this?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Anura Kumara Dissanayake, if you have no answers to my questions, you better wake up, man! Wake up and educate innocent political babe Sunil Watawala that if you sleep with the dogs you wake up with the fleas. If you are also unaware of that saying recite it like a mantra to yourself!<\/p>\n<p>I repeat.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dear readers, savor yesterday\u2019s Supreme Court verdict to your heart\u2019s content.
