Labour parties disastrous defeat would have been \u00a0welcome by Sinhala community in \u00a0UK and also \u00a0the Sinhalese people in Sri Lanka for having humiliated the Sinhalese community on the Sinhala New Year Day by its leader Ed Miliband. \u00a0In sending a message on the Sinhala & Hindu New year, Ed Miliband the Labour leader had the audacity to categorically and emphatically wish only \u00a0the Tamil Community in UK Happy Tamil New Year\u201d \u00a0ignoring the stark fact that it is the New Year of 74% of the Sri Lankan population.\u00a0 He further promised the Tamils that he would continue to push for the full, independent, international war crimes against humanity committed in Sri Lanka. I quote below the transcript of Ed Miliband\u2019s message:<\/p>\n

I want to wish everyone in the Tamil community a Happy New Year.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

And I want to take the opportunity to thank the Tamil community for the incredible contribution you make to our country, across every walk of life.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Labour Party has always been a friend of the Tamil community and will continue to be so.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

And we will continue to push for the full and independent, international investigation into alleged war crimes in Sri Lanka.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is something I raised with President Sirisena when I met him. We will continue to push this forward and continue to advocate for your cause.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We, in the Labour Party, know our responsibility to the Tamil community.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

So let me reiterate my wishes for a Happy New Year and I look forward to working with the Tamil community, in the months and years ahead.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

May be that Sinhala voters in UK have shown Ed Miliband when and where to open his shitty mouth. It was a well deserved defeat for Labour and the Tamil Diaspora for sucking and financing Labour party to date. But yet, it doesn\u2019t mean that Sri Lankans curry favour with Conservative\u2019s David Cameron as we still remember his undiplomatic behaviour during the CHOGM. That was a reaction of the Tamil influence he embraced with during his visit \u00a0and the Tamil Diaspora with the Conservatives \u00a0will continue to use their influence\u00a0 with lobbying & financing against Sri Lanka. However, let him be reminded that Conservatives would have got most of the \u00a0Labour party Sinhala votes in this election because of Ed Miliband\u2019s one of the biggest political blunders he made before the elections by siding the Tamil community only. Let this be a lesson to David Cameron for his future endeavours on Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n
