President Ranil Wickremesinghe appointed his cabinet yesterday, consisting of literally the same people in nearly the same positions as Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s cabinet when he resigned.
People say only Mahinda Rajapaksa and his son Namal are missing 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Rajapaksas rescued Tamils from 'terrorists' in 2009. Ranil is rescuing state buildings from 'terrorists' in 2022. Hope the South at least now understands that 'terrorists' are CREATED by the people in power for the obvious reason: to remain in power.

Abolishing the Executive Presidency is not going to change individuals either
22 Jul 2022
When you protest, please make the abolition of the Executive Presidency as one of your primary demands. Changing the individuals is not going to work. If Ranil goes, the next in line Dinesh Gunawardane who will be no different from Ranil.
