First of all isn't there a better interface that can be used for discussion?

ok, I didn't delete it but edited a lot: here are the reasons as per your request. Thank you very much.

• that "Wickramasinghe exposed the LRRP" is a bit too strong. It was Kulasiri Udugampola who did it, so I changed the para to reflect the fact. Please have a look at the way it is now before reverting.

• "ultra traitor" just sounds silly teenager gaming messegeboard-cruft. you don't usually use "ultra" as an adjective in literary work with "traitor". Sounding like a teenager won't be of any use, even if your idea is to emphasise, because it will just sound ameterish instead.
• "majority of Sri Lankans" is unsubstantiated unless you show evidence, I added the fact of his defeat anyway, but there may be other reasons, such as economic hardship, escalating prices etc. So if you insist about a majority opposition, please elaborate why.
• "veiled from the people of Sri Lanka in a foreign country (I forget which country)" is not enclyclopeadic. If you forgot, then research before you write. By the way, MoU was signed in Sri Lanka, so your claim was not true as well.

I also moved the paragraph to the proper place in time line, hope you would agree. Greenleaf 06:31, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

All you ranil supporters remember all indian astrologers (including Ravi Shankar and Sai Baba) have predicted he will ascend to the highest office of this land in future and rule for about 16 years. How can he rule for 16 instead of the legal 12??? The fellow is trying to rule like a dictator.

Of course Ranil is more shrewd than his "old fox" uncle. I'm surprised it's only 16!!! What the UNP needs to do is adopt a "wait and see" strategy. It's only a matter of time after people turn against this government. Ranil very well knows that
