Unelected master debating president loves action on his double bed in mile high club. He is very strong character who turns himself on on his steamy double bed taking zone by zone till normal folks are struggling to walk

They will all certainly loose their deposits in the next election and among them will be their leader.

Mr Ranil Wickramasinghe (not RW as the President) must take total responsibility and ownership for the absolute leadership disaster which has ruined the grand old party! Even at 73 years no succession plan to have a deputy shadowing him. He couldn't keep Sajith within the party and neither did he groom Ruwan W or anyone else for that matter. This should be studied as a case study in all universities offering Management as a subject of WHAT NOT TO DO as a leader. Another lesson to learn is intelligence which contributes at a conceptual level to create a vision should be supported with a high energy feet on the ground team of DOERs to execute plans that will achieve the vision. In the absence of such a team the leader will create a political culture of manipulation and deceit for his own survival at the expense of the growth of the entity (in this case the UNP). Colombo elite's like Mr Ronald P as National organiser may not be the most appealing to win a majority. A strategic blunder

If RW is serious about been an independent presidential candidate these type of publicity will only confuse people or create suspicion. RW as a brand was once known as Mr Clean and now he is known as maha banku hora! UNP s Number two Ravi K is a dustbin figure in the eyes of the public. RW should make a public announcement and hand over the campaign leadership from the UNP to another senior person like Ruwan Wijewardane and make himself truly NirPaakshika. His loyalty to Rajapakses and his ridiculing of Sajith will not help him win 1st or 2nd slot in the race round one. Best will be 3rd. UNP must understand the intellectual level of the middle class (their vote base during RP era) in now more politically savy.

The fact that the UNP is even running in this election again is almost a surprise!!! Because it will no longer play a political role in this election and if you analyse the faces of the men immediately surrounding Ranil, they all express hopelessness, almost depression!!! There is no sign of a spirit of optimism towards a victorious election!!! Ranil can no longer be saved, he cannot lead the country into a really better future because he has not found any solutions to the fundamental, systemic problems such as corruption, unfair governance and also the ethnic question!!! In addition to this, there is a massively advanced emotional rejection of him as an active politician whose political machinations have been known for decades and have often enough been seen through as deceptions and dirty tricks!!!

Titanic? Captain RANIL is bravely boarding his crew, but stormy seas are on the horizon. No vice captain in sight? Seems like everyone thinks they're the one fit for the job. Fingers crossed there are no icebergs lurking ahead. Can Captain RANIL steer us to safety? Where's the band? If we hit an iceberg, it's PAPEREE BAND time. Where is the BAND? Where is the BAND? ....Better we start with the ROYAL PARIPPU song.

Political rejects, totally rejected by the voters. The Discarded Lot living on borrowed time cheating the masses. How can a man known for deceptions and dirty tricks be ever entrusted again.
