It  would die a chaotic death which makes it slightly different from the  death of the old left which was relatively peaceful. UNP deserve to die  for the evils that its leaders have created for the country. JR.  Jayawardana introduced all forms of corruption, a rogue constitution and  an autocratic rule and died an unceremonious death without many people  shedding tears. Premadasa introduced death squads and a culture of  murder and mayhem and died a violent death making the nation rejoice at  his death. Ranil Wikkramasingha signed a treacherous peace accord that  strengthened the LTTE to such an extent that they could virtually  paralyse the nation wherever and wherever they wanted and he is dying a  slow but sure political death.People by and large have lost trust in the UNP. It is comprised members  who are not charismatic, not ethical, not moral but opportunistic and  untrustworthy. Lakshman Senevirathna and Paba have publicly proclaimed  that they cannot waste another 6 years sitting in the opposition. How  decent is this claim? Do they mean that wasting years without getting  undue perks? Jonstan Fernando and Lakshman Senevirathna gave false  evidence against the General. For what?, to be in the good books of  Rajapakshas. Do they understand how vital is the role of an opposition  in a true democracy? In certain situations contribution of the  opposition is more important than the contribution of the government. If  those politicians do not understand the most basic principle of  politics in a democracy is to have a strong opposition they deserve to  be chased away from the parliament.  Have they forgotten or do they not  understand that people voted them in to oppose the current party in  power? Do they not acknowledge that if they have told the public that  they would cross over if their party failed to form a government they  would never have been elected? Do they, the rogues, the liars and the  betrayers, not owe an explanation to the people?  If they have an iota  of decency in them they should resign and face by-elections.Manipulating such adverse circumstances prevailing within the main  opposition   the SLFP have managed to turn the voters away from the UNP  and make a voter base for themselves that is solid and immune to small  threats. It is too late, too complicated and merely impossible to revive  UNP into its former glory as it is incredibly difficult to sway the  voters in their favour under the leadership of any of the current  forerunners within the party.Sajith Premadasa is earmarked by many of the party members to be the  saviour.  It will take at least another 15 years for his father’s memory  to fade away from the minds of those who suffered in his hand. The ten  to twenty year olds in 1989 are the majority of the electoral register  today.  From late eighties it would take 40 to 50 years for them to be  in the minority of the electoral register. This means that Premadasa has  to wait another 20 to 30 years for those who remember his father’s  atrocities to be in the minority of the electoral register.  At present  they are the majority and still talk about Premadasa era in which how  the bodies were burnt by the roadside, how the severed limbs of men were  displayed at roundabouts, how the suspects were killed by hammering  nails through their ears, how the loved ones were dragged out of their  houses in front of the mothers and their dead bodies were found later  and how people disappeared without a trace. This was the most horrendous  terror era of our times and it is impossible for people to trust an  offshoot of Premadasa. It will be a tremendously hard task for young  Premadasa to absolve himself of his father’s guilt however good his  intentions are. His decision to be in the shadows while working to build  up a good reputation is wise and he needs more time to emerge as a  fully fledged leader.The only possible strategy to face the Rajapaksha menace is to form an  alliance of individuals not parties.  Starting from the 7 members of the  DNA there are other good individuals in other parties who should think  of uniting and forming a new alliance of people. Someone should initiate  action towards this. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" /></blockquote>
