Nation in desperate need of political alternatives – SF
Posted by Editor on July 12, 2013 - 4:06 pm
Democratic Party Leader, Sarath Fonseka stated that he founded his political party to provide the nation with a much needed alternative political force to that of the government.
Speaking at a rally in Balangoda, Fonseka said that he has united with people who do not engage in corruption to make this a reality.
From the day of independence, the parties that governed the nation had failed to develop the nation and the public has failed to reap the benefits of independence, he charged.
Fonseka added that this was why the nation was in desperate need for an alternative political party and that he was engaged in traveling from town to town, village to village garnering support for his cause.

We thank you SF for your magnificent role in totally eliminating LTTE. But it all went into your head! You wanted to be the President of SL, with evil JVP and crafty UNP spurring you on and feeding your mighty EGO. You are a great soldier but certainly not a politician. So why don’t you disband your party of 2 or 3 members and make your peace with MR? He may yet offer you a good role within his govt.
Yes I Agree with Mr. N. Dias…
As Nicholas said, SF is a good soldier but a bad politician. Not everyone can be good at everything.
SF, please do what ever you are good at, not what ever you are bad at. But for that you must have a good brain to realise what you are good at.
Otherwise you keep doing bad things because you think you are good at that and you are driven and danced like a trained monkey by some tricky NGOs and foreign Ambassadors using money as the sure bait.
