By Charles.S.Perera<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

Now there are two SLFPs one of Srisena and other of SWRD. Are they the same or are they different ?<\/p>\n

Let us see.<\/p>\n

SWRD left UNP to form a politically socialist SLFP -different from the Western Capitalist \u00a0UNP.<\/p>\n

Sirisena left the socialist SLFP to join politically different Western Capitalist UNP. Can we draw a political \u00a0parallel to Srisena and\u00a0 SWRD? No, they are poles apart aren\u2019t they ?<\/p>\n

SWRD left a Capitalist political System to form\u00a0 a Socialist political system.<\/p>\n

Sirisena left a Socialist political System to join a Western Capitalist political System.<\/p>\n

Can Sirisena claim a political similarity to SWRD ?\u00a0 No he cannot .<\/p>\n

SWRD\u00a0 formed the SLFP and joined with the MEP,LSSP and the Communist Pa\u00a0 rty.<\/p>\n

Sirisena left the Socialist SLFP to join with the Western Capitalist UNP, half-baked Marxist JVP, Tamil Natiuonalist TNA and Nationalist Hela Urumaya, against Socialist left wing\u00a0 MEP,LSSP,CP,NFF, Pivithuru Hela Urumaya.<\/p>\n

Is there any political Similarity between Sirisena and SWRD ? Definitely No .<\/p>\n

On the 8 January, President Mahinda Rajapakse who was also the President of\u00a0 SWRD\u2019s SLFP was defeated by Sirisena\u00a0 at the Presidential election. On the 16 January, 2015 the President of SLFP Mahinda Rajapakse handed over the Presidency of the SLFP to the new President Maithripala Sirisena.<\/p>\n

By that action can Sirisena,\u00a0 who on his own accord left the SLFP to join the Western Capitalist UNP and its right wing politicians, be cleansed of his sin of leaving the SLFP to make of him a legitimate leader of SWRD\u2019s SLFP ?\u00a0 No he cannot be cleansed of the sin of leaving SLFP.<\/p>\n

Sirisena\u2019s legal right to be the President of SLFP has not been legally challenged , but\u00a0 what is evident is Sirisena has\u00a0 no Moral right to be the leader of the SLFP.<\/p>\n

Now there are two SLFPs one led by President Sirisena\u00a0 and the other SLFP forming a political front with Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna claiming Mahinda Rajapakse as its leader<\/p>\n

Can there be two SLFPs one lead by Maithripala Sirisena, \u00a0and another\u00a0 claiming the leadership of Mahinda Rajapakse ?\u00a0 No there cannot be two SLFPs.<\/p>\n

One of SLFP has to be the one that is closest to SWRD\u2019s political philosophy not both.<\/p>\n

The SLFP of Maithripala Sirisena\u00a0 is with UNP , and\u00a0 its Allies JVP, TNA, JHU\u00a0 accepting to work with\u00a0 a capitalist political system, \u00a0distancing itself from the Socialist left wing politics in association with MEP,LSSP,CP, NFF and PHU. This is exactly what SWRD did not want his SLFP to be.<\/p>\n

The other SLFP the members of which are with the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna which claims the leadership of Mahinda Rajapakse, which \u00a0has refused any cohabitation with the UNP and seeks allegiance with\u00a0 Socialist Left wing politicians , which is what SWRD wanted when he left the Western Capitalist political system of the UNP.<\/p>\n

Hence the\u00a0 SLFP with President Maithripala Sirisena is fake, it is NOT what SWRD wanted his SLFP to be.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Therefore the real SLFP containing the political philosophy of SWRD is with the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is therefore clear that what President Mahinda Rajapakse handed over to President Maithripala Sirisena\u00a0 on the 16 January,2015 was only the name of\u00a0 SWRD\u2019s political party,\u00a0 but not what it contained \u2013the SWRD\u2019s political philosophy.\u00a0 The ownership\u00a0 of SWRD\u2019s political philosophy is \u00a0still with Mahinda Rajapakse.<\/p>\n

However the Sinhala Buddhists should not listen to English Educated\u00a0 Colombians or Sinhala diaspora who may say vote for Pohottuva if Mahinda Rajapakse accepts to remove the 13 A from the Constitution etc because\u00a0 Mahinda Rajapakse\u00a0 knows what he has to do. <\/strong><\/p>\n

When Mahinda Rajapakse was elected President in 2005 he knew what exactly he was going to do, \u00a0and none of the English Educated Colombians and the Sinhala Diaspora had to tell him what he had to do. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Though the Western Capitalist UNP started calling him\u00a0 corrupt and that he was a thief, the cry that was taken up by the JVP, were all lies to slander\u00a0 and damage the reputation of an honest man to prepare the way for them to come to political power to plunder the State Coffers, and destroy Sri Lanka\u00a0 developed by Mahinda Rajapakse in a short time after eliminating terrorism.<\/p>\n

Mahinda Rajapakse knows what he has to do as he is a man who learns from his experience.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Therefore it would be wise for the Sinhala Buddhists not to be divided and VOTE at the coming Provincial Council Election for the POHOTTUWA of Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna which has the Political System as it had been planned and set up by SWRD Bandaranayake.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
