Seeing presidential election is upcoming, still these parliamentarians don't think about the people. Yesterday you may have seen Kanchana mendis behaviour in the house. Think twice about those people when you are voting for the presidential election. Choose a people friendly leader.

This is not a highlight news for anyone knows about current parliamentary affairs. Out of 225, more than three quarter of the so called ‘members’ have no clue for what they’re going to vote…

No electricity then! All the transformers will be destroyed. Those responsible will be tried in village courts, since they did it because some have and some don’t have electricity, the courts will say it’s correct because now all are equal. So much for ‘direction’

This wont shock anyone. Even a bill to cut off electricity by half to everyone but government stooges will get through thanks to the thumping majority of the government. And it will go on until the government is rolled over at the elections, which it cannot manouevre. Would the people learn not to vote in deep sleep to a pack of scoundrels? I wish they would, yet doubt it.

More to come before the election - Myna and Pina are planning more and more and ready to spend most of the stolen money to escape legal punishments - people careful and be wise! Who raised taxes? Who sold the country? Who is crying in public to get sympathy and vote?
