The SLPP can win any election as it has reorganised itself in more than 70 percent of electorates, former Minister and MP Johnston Fernando said.

"Many said that SLPP members will not be able to go to the electorates once again. This was the ideology held by many after we were attacked last year. However we have been able to reorganise ourselves in more than 70 percent of the electorates," the MP said during an SLPP Bala Mandala meeting at Polgahawela.

"The SLPP will win the Kurunegala District by a majority of more than 200,000. Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa will record the largest number of preferential votes. At least 11 SLPP members will go to Parliament from the Kurunegala District. We are ready for any election," he added.

You must be having a day time dream . Did you forget people were chasing you all out and all of you were hiding.. One of your MP was killed by angry mob? Why all this if you are good enough? People know what to do next ? Don't be self fooled ? Do not be over confident? Politics can change in a minute?

Before the SLPP can win a single seat they must get rid of the Rajapaksa mafia clan and bootlickers and crooks like you. You can practice throwing chairs again, since you'll soon be kicked out of parliament.

Dont talk bullshit. If you are ready to call for an election you can easily do it with your majority without having to do pooja to Ranil.

Hay fool Jonny, you can only win elections through your dirty stinking mouth and not in action again. We have already identified your other mansions and your illicit liquor selling outlets for our next action.

Mr. Johnston, please don't dream and in the near future avoid going out alone or with your family. Your end along with MR's end is nearing.

Last time when you came to Nuwara-Eliya, a gang belongs to MP Sanakiyan (Batticaloa) was following you to murder you, anyway you escaped. Be aware, because of your bad behavior your life is in risk.

Winning an election entails a fomidable re-organizaton of party machinery with broad mass participation than gathering a few hard-core supporters or acolytes to form a quorum for an indoor puppet meeting of a party which has totally lost its steam.

SLPP will get only one seat like Ranil, that will be Amaraweera - Present Agriculture Minister. All others will face a shocking defeat.

Even though, some SLPP stalwarts believe in that, Gota's winning strategy of racism won't work again. And specially Rajapakses will have no room in any future elections and Uncle Sam will ensure that.

You are absolutely right, because you can get that stupid Sinhalese of 70% to vote for you again and again by singing a nice racist threat baila with your other thieves such as Gamanpilla, Weerawansa, DanPrasad, Gnanasara etc...

He is disappointed not being offered a ministerial post, if he gets elected again, the people will be disappointed. If he doesn’t get elected the country will benefit. He missed out on the central highway heist, wants to make another attempt.

Even with the money looted from highway projects and free arrack supply from your illicit distilleries will not bring you victory. Keep dreaming.
