RW has done an excellent job campaigning for the UNP.
Never seen him do that in his 26 years as leader.
What RW says is correct; devoid of coalition hangers-on, the UNP is a great political party.
A pure UNP without the Hakeems, Digambarams, Ranawakes, Rajithas etc is a joyous entity.
The UNP rose to a Colossus in 1977 following an 8 seat performance in 1970.
History will repeat itself.
No harm dreaming mate.
rich companies like cagills and keels will provide the much needed funds for Ranil not to have foreign investors and as such only the foreign investors know how is required
SL public safe guarded UNP in 2015. What you gave them in in return? Bonds scam? selling Hambantota harbour (after removing the big stone)? Jailing Buddhist monks? Banning Pirith? Allowing the Easter bombing? Promising the never materialised Volkswagen factory in K’negala? New Constitution drafted by Jayamapathy et al drinking Whisky in a hotel room? May be your Colombo.7 voter-base will support you. Any retirement plan?
was a great political party is more like it. It is so because that senile old fart does not want to give up the leadership of the party.
The only way whether there were Bond scams or not is to pay one million dollars to the world Bank for it is a big mathematical question and thousands of mathematical Professors from over 169 countries through scype including 7 mathematical Professors from Sri Lanka would participate. As such it was a waste of we the peoples public funds for COPE, PCOL and Auditor General to have investigated them
