Ranil Wickremesinghe destoryed the party for 20 years : Malcolm Perera

Colombo (News 1st): A media briefing was convened by the Gajasavi Samajawadi Peramuna in Wattala today (November 23). Speaking at the briefing Wattala Organizer of the Peramuna Malcolm Perera noted that the only thing that Ranil Wickremesinghe did being the leader of UNP is, he destroyed the party for 20 years. He added that when a problem arose in the party he puts it onto someone else's head and gets away with it.

"This is not Ranil Wickremesinghe's or the General Secretary's party nor is it anyone else's party. This is the people's Party. They should give party leadership to Sajith Premadasa. All the ministers in the UNP will support Sajith Premadasa as the UNP leader and as the opposition leader. When he is made the opposition leader, he will be able to face the general election, with more votes. The transition from victory to defeat was because of his best friends in the party. 90% don't like Ranil Wickeremesinge being the prime minister or the opposition leader. At this point, I would like to say that if Ranil Wickeremesinghe becomes the opposition leader then there is no way that the UNP can be saved."
