Grand old party had died in the last election. Burial is still not taking place and it will be done with the next election. Until then the embalm body is kept in the parliament protected by its caretaker Ranil.

Unbelievable luck !! A party that lost all the seats in the last election is by some extraordinary turn of events able to celebrate it’s 76th anniversary without any embarrassment or shame.

Is 76th a milestone? This celebration silly under normal circumstances is preposterous under current circumstances. Are we trying to be the “stupidest“country on earth?

Is it a Royal old boys Association, anniversary? That memory lost man (on, where he stays) is also there, to make it Royalty for ever. Wonderful! Keep it up.

Wonderful to see many individuals who castigated The Hon. Ranil Wickramasinghe happily seated at the UNP Anniversary celebrations. What a wonderful World!!!

Both UNP and Pohotuwa have communed with one and other and joined with them some corrupt businessmen in oligarchy to maintain the status quo of power wealth and status within themselves.

We should not be proud of any of these old parties since they have purposely divide and rule the minorities and destroyed this country to this level today. Every single party need to take responsibility for their actions and we should focus on building the nation with new concepts with younger generation

After Ranil became President, Ravi who was like a fugitive after the Bond Scam scandal has now started appearing again on TV talking and looking like a Saint.

Ranil is a highly questionable politician ! I remember very clearly his political positions towards the LTTE during Chandrikas time as president ! He has no reason to celebrate ! You can't trust his politics !!!

Trying to resurrect a dead elephant. It will be futile. Dinesh who screamed in parliament about the central bank bond scam too has attended it. It's high time that all the three leading parties SLPP, UNP and SJB are totally rejected by the people as they no longer have any proper policies.

After fooling around for four decades as a senior and honest politician Ranil has hammered the final nail in the coffin of the grand old party the UNP celebrating it's 76th anniversary while openly supporting the Rajapaksa family which has not only destroyed the UNP and also the country gasping for last breath.
