Gives an idea of some of these fellows who shift allegiance so fast and accept new bedfellows.

A blessing in disguise for Ranil. Other contestants are getting ready to highlight the present civil status of this gentleman.

All these useless, unproductive frogs must be booted out. Just want to stay in power and enjoy the privileges. Any idea what has he done so far as a Minister? SL has so many professionals who are humble to take over his post and do a sterling job.

Although we dislike the party politics of SLPP Premalal had a very clear policy not like other politicians who crossed over to either RW faction or the SJB Thus he came forward to support his master in spite of the other personal gains. Further he personally knows that Namal may have to face a huge defeat during the upcoming presidential election. However Premalal is exemplary to other corrupted opportunistic politicians

Just that you know...there were people who supported and stuck with Mahinda since the late 80s and they were aptly rewarded when he came to power....both Ranil and Namal will loose this election....but i have a feeling Namal will come in to power within the next 5 to 10 years, Premalal is probably betting on that future horse !!! Btw, Saji or Kumara will fail miserably giving Namal an opportunity.....you wait and see !!!

This is what he thought (in my view). There is a higher chance of Ranil not becoming the president. Supporting Sajith is outer the question so the best option for HIS future wealth would be to support Namal.

Incredible! This shows the intelligence of SJB who just accepts these morons without a beat and that of NPP who has a clear stand. On the other hand, how stupid are the SL voters who bring these people to Parliament? Does anything more need to be said why SL will never be a developed country? SL people: at least give a chance to NPP and see. If they don't deliver, drop them too next time. Just give them a chance and see.

who the hell will risk his lively hood and future by giving ex-terrorist NPP (JV) a chance. 6.9M did give a chance to a non political outsider and the results speak for itself, we are still trying heal the wound. NO WAY, NO chance to NPP
