GERIATRIC RETIREE WITHOUT PENSION - TAX PAYER SINCE 1975. Wednesday, 28 August 2024 11:43 PM

REVISE THE INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX THRESHOLD TO RS.500,000 PER MONTH IMMEDIATELY - THAT IS RS, 6 MILLION PER YEAR. OTHERWISE WE ARE UNABLE PAY FOR TRANSPORT TO CAST OUR VOTES. WE HAVE BEEN MAINTAINING TAX FILES WITH IRD LAST 50 YEARS SINCE 1974/1975. WE CANNOT WALK TO THE POLLING BOOTH, CANNOT GET INTO A BUS @ 75 YEARS AND CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR A TAXI.

I was there. The crowd was appalling given that Colombo is considered a stronghold for RW and home district of Bandula, Susil, Madura. 25% of the crowd were PSD, MSD, STF, Intelligence officers and the Police. Ground reality is that RW has no chance at all.

Mr PREZ, Appears that you have lost sight of the forest for the trees. Your coalition is like the Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. You have attracted a bunch of fat mice who have abandoned a sinking ship. People are sick of MR Clan as well as the thieves who he had under his umbrella' Then you have Dinesh, who was the biggest promoter of MR. You have the golden opportunity to dump them and get a set of fresh and honest faces. These crooks bring very few voters except for their cronies whom the voters hate. This is one of the trump cards AKD holds to hide behind. You may still have a striking chance if you purge these crooks, publicly.

It appears that the attending crowd is small and hence no photos showing the crowd. I can see some jokers on the stage

when Hon ADK said he would increase the tax-free PAYE slab from 100,000 to 200,000, you all said it cannot be done without IMF's consent. NOW you all are doing it. That means ALL THESE DAYS YOU ALL WERE LYING TO THE PUBLIC.

Public Should By Now Understand Why Change Is Needed Thursday, 29 August 2024 06:30 AM

Ranil and team seem confident they will be voted back in. Good for them if they do but bad for the people as they prefer the status quo. Suffering in silence the malpractices, over expenditures, large political leaders in power living the good life using public funds but not improving the public’s lifestyles. Anyways, people are more educated and have access to social media. If they can’t comprehend and understand there is so much abuse of power with the previous and current regimes, it clearly shows their ignorance of the current situation. Remember, every party has professional advisors and they will advise the new President on important issues such as IMF.

No spectators again, except for a photographer? This old senile man should stop his tour before he has a heart attack. Surely speaking in an empty tent can lead to depression.

I saw some busses brought from Wayamba province like Nikavarity, parked during that meeting. As usual, people are keen to listen to his jokes, as he is, better than Mr. Bean. So, attended it.

In my view Ranil has made a mistake by contesting as an Independent. That means a person without policies and any any successors to continue. It becomes one man show. No number two named or identified. Is it a UNP member or Dinesh is going to be No.2. with " no one knows policy. " It is a gamble by Ranil?

NPP supporters are very active online and in social media, hence the social-engineers, online-activists are very much biased and publish, what NPPers want for more likes, subscribes and view-time required to be payable or for a multi digit pay cheque. Anura is already the social media president.
