Stupid logic of UNPers


According to United National Party parliamentarians and their lap dogs, it is alright to rob the central bank. It is alright to remove the central bank from the finance ministry and take it under your wings. It is alright to appoint your mate as the Governor of the central bank, although he is NOT a Sri Lankan citizen. It is alright your appointee to have a son in law who owns a primary dealership in government securities. It is alright for your appointee, the governor of the central bank and his son in law the primary dealer of government securities to live under one roof. It is alright for your appointee, the governor of the central bank to allow his son in law to bid for the government securities. It is alright for him to get double or triple the amount of treasury bonds auctioned, for higher bid. It is alright for your appointee, the governor of the central bank to prevent the government banks participating in the primary bidding in treasury bonds, making it a one horse race. It is alright for the son in law of your appointee, the governor of the central bank to sell back those bond to the government banks with a fat profit margin.  It is alright for son in law of your appointee, the governor of the central bank to make Rs 11 billion in profit in one calendar year by just fiddling with government securities. 

Yes sir, it is alright to engage in all the above and still you are clean. You get the vote of confidence.

However is it bad to break the collective responsibility of the cabinet members. It is bad to understand the fraud and vote with the no-confidence. Yes sir, it is a cardinal sin and for that all the cabinet ministers who voted with consciousness must be kicked out of the cabinet!!
