The three great outcomes for me in the two elections are: 1. AKD winning the presidency 2. Harini recording the highest preferential vote 3. NPP winning the Jaffna district. Thank you northern brothers/ sisters I have regained my faith in Sri Lankans

The main reason is that this is the first time in the history that a genuine southern party contested so people had a wider choice Thanks for the NPP policies

On the contrary, this proves the number of lazy / jealous Lankans has increased. It's going to be a massive challenge to satisfy all the Lankans who expect the government to feed, clothe, shelter and educate them.

The most dangerous member of the NPP party is Harini. She will advocate for the LGBT community in Sri Lanka. Just have a ook at the several YouTube videos she has posted advocating for the repeal of the British law pertaining to samesex relationships. She went on to emphasise that we must safeguard youngsters. She is already aware that youngsters are at risk of abuse by the LGBT community when they are granted rights.

What is your problem with the LGBT community? Are you a homophobic C or what? They are human beings too. Does your religious belief not tolerate and accept people from different backgrounds? You are so pathetic and ............
