Last time Cameron came to Sri Lanka he was then the British Prime Minister, he openly insulted our dancers sent to serenade him at the airport, later publicly had argument with President Mahinda Rajapaksas, informed the press in Colombo that his mission was to visit Jaffna and not to stay in Colombo and left for Jaffna to have a secret meeting with the then Jaffna Chief Minister Wickneswaran.

At least now you will know that what David Cameron was trying to say then was expressed through the Aragalaya recently. MR was a law unto his own suppressing the minorities until he began suppressing the majority for his own survival and was throw out by his own people and then to be saved only by RW who needed this lifeline for his own survival. How things have changed ?

It would have been much better if David Cameron has advised this man to step down without ridiculing the democratic form of governance.

PM Cameron was the first ever foreign Prime Minister to visit and met with Jaffna residents at an internally displaced camp. As a result many diaspora Tamils voted Conservative Party and Kingston Council administration changed hands to Conservatives. Also Kingston and Surbiton changed to Conservative MP from LibDem Party. Mr Cameron welcome and enjoy your stay.

The rulers after the British have ruined the country so much that many people are suffering physically and mentally. The crooked politicians and businessmen are enjoying the life and disregarding the poor people’s suffering. Why do the politicians in power need Benz and other expensive vehicles? The Indian vehicles should be more than enough. We hope Ranil W had some good advice from the UK Ex PM.

RW should have asked from Cameron how to retire from politics, when the time is up?

Cameron must understand that RW is only frontman for Rajapakshas,Aragalaya is people’s uprising against corruption which made RW president as ragapaksha hand picked so he has notorious criminal past as well as intention to suppress Aragalaya to be in power

Sinhalese will Sri lanka only for next 100 years if Sinhalese don't start to counter Tamil and their foreign supporters. Their goal of changing demography of Sri lanka already in place. Non of the Sinhalese governments did know for first 25 years of war, That Tamil war directly created by Western countries to attract India. First proof is 1983 riot which was created by western spies to reason for millions Tamil to get refugee status. One more another proof is before 1983 riot , NGOS and churches given order to welcome Tamil and attack Sinhalese Buddhists majority with massive criminal propaganda , one more other proof. from 1983, or even before. Sinhalese were banned officially applying through embassies to enter Europe or Canada, and instead , they provided Indian immigrant papers through embassies. Can you Sri lanka provide any proof That Canada and Europe provided any immigrant status under precedent Jayawarderna. There was big propaganda saying he was pro. western, but ...

@Roberta Flack, David Cameron openly insulted the leadership of Sri Lanka in our own country and that should never have been tolerated regardless. There was certainly no sincerity in this man's actions and was only politically posturing just for Tamil votes in his own country. As for the Aragalaya mob, they never had an alternative solution and aimlessly created all that commotion only to end up with a Rajapakse proxy running the country instead. Contrary to your view, I doubt much has changed in the political landscape of Sri Lanka, with the same circus functioning, withstanding all that Aragalaya effort.

But they were secretly meeting Tamil and Indian and provided massive scale of funding to Tamil and found ways to smuggle weapons to Sri lanka from around the world. Their major goal is to wipe out top patriotic leaders of then government of Jawardane as part of main campaign to put down Sinhalese morals and economy. So, don't think they go to any country in one night! It takes 30 to 50 more years to put down one country
