SLFP members who form new party will become empty cups – SB
Mobitel inner 1278

Minister S.B. Dissanayake says that members of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) who attempt to breakaway and form new alternative parties, after the party’s 65th convention in Kurunegala, will simply be joining history as “empty cups”.

 

He said that past experiences of those who have left the party including himself shows what will eventually happen and that they even returned to the party as mere “sheets of paper”.

 

The Minister of Social Empowerment and Welfare said that the SLFP’s central committee convened last night and that they intend to approve several proposals at the party convention on September 04.

 

He said that a committee was appointed for this purpose and that it will meet at 6.00pm today.
