Thank you Mr. President for saving us from the scary foreign influencer lady. Thank you for detaining the very bad mug bandit. Thank you for saving us from the terrorist who sat in the presidents chair. The horror.

1/5
Thanks for arresting the extremist priest, monk and the scary trade Union dude... Imagine the nerve to call himself Stalin and demand meaningful change, I mean they really are the worst. What's a Ratta anyway? Sounds bloody dodgy.

I guess they bankrupted this country, they robbed the central bank, they murdered journalists and dissapeared people, sugar & garlic scam must have been them too & they must definitely be responsible for all the white elephant projects that piled on the debt.

They are the reason that gas cans exploded and 15 or more people died in queues.

Inflation is what these days?

The racist scum that divided people to win elections.

4/5

We are the Aragalaya that stood upto corruption, nepotism and cronyism. We want to see a just and equitable Sri Lanka so that our children and grand children don't have to fight this battle with another generation of corrupt rulers and a corrupt system that enables them.

The brave young men and women at GGG and protests across the nation inspired us, made us dream that change is possible in our lifetime.

They faught for us with no consideration of cast, creed, religion and now they are persecuted for demanding meaningful change. Now let's take this movement forward and stand up for the ones who put their bodies on the line to achieve so much.

As the new President enjoys the pomp and ceremony today as parliament reconvenes, here are a few nuggets of news to ponder on that is all overseen and implicitly or explicitly happening under his administration.

1/8
1. Prasanna Ranatunga appoints a close relative to the position of UDA chairman. He was also appointed to various positions when the said minister was handling the tourism portfolio.

2/8 Image
2. Nimal Siripala de Silva has been released from bribery charges by committee and immediately given a cabinet portfolio.

Since we are measuring the value of things, what's the value of the lives lost to the Easter bombings? What's the value of lives taken and livelihoods destroyed due to the economic crisis?

1/8
What's the value of your time spent in endless queues? What's the value of the loss of education for our children and what's the value of the price we pay daily for corruption, nepotism and cronyism?

2/8
Powerful people play games, ignore the will of the people, lie and obfuscate, mislead and expect no consequences. Eventually when you batter and beat people up and stretch them to breaking point there will be a reaction, it was inevitable.

On social media Just hours earlier some of the hard core baiyyas and secret baiyyas were cheering the beating of journalists and then later they are outraged about a house burning down 🙄

They would love nothing more than the focus being on this damn house.

1/2
When people are pushed to the edge, and when leaders have to be thrown out for ignoring the will of the people & playing games with their lives, you will always have acts of spontaneous anger, IF that's what it was

No one condones it. A rich man will rebuild his house.

Move on
If we all agree that what happened is nothing short of a revolution, then destruction of property is part and parcel of that, right of revolution.

They can rebuild and repaint. Those places were used to safeguard people who destroyed lives and livelihoods.

No one, absolutely no one asked Ranil to jump in and try save the Rajapaksas and accept the PM position.

Gota was hanging on despite plunging this country into a catastrophic economic crisis. Both have no shame, no guilt no empathy.

1/5
If they listened to the will of the people, which they were denying, none of this would be nessesary.

They have to be literally dragged out and chased away with no dignity at all.

That's how greedy and power hungry they are.

2/5
Ranil can rebuild that house. Can you bring back the 15 dead people from fuel queues back to their families or the mother and son that committed suicide?

It never should have come to this. They should have respected the will of the people bit its deals and games with them.
