Rambukwella says no to leaping
Last week’s report in these columns about speculation of Kandy District SLFP rebel MP Keheliya Rambukwella joining the United National Party ranks drew a quick response.
Mr Rambukwella, who read the report at his Kandy residence, called a news conference the same Sunday morning. He declared that he had no plans to quit his party and join what he called a “losing party.”
Mr Rambukwella told the Sunday Times that a UNP north central province politician has been spreading the story about his possible crossover and that has led to speculation. “Even if I join, he (the politician) will be the last person to know,” he added. That was an interesting quote, though.
