A Foxy – Proxy 100% Proportionate Representative System has been approved as 20^th Amendment by the Cabinet!

This 125:100 = FPPS:PRS is the oldest proposals surfaced, off the Parliamentary Select Committee sittings in 2004-2005, and was stalled for the following reasons since then. Now ten years have passed, how cabinet ministers can persist on the same formula of, 225 = 125FPPS + 100PRS when changes on cards, an arrogant decision that cannot be rationalized by any means considering the population expansion and increase of voting capacity since then, quite obviously reflects some personal ambitions.

Foxy because it is not only retains the number of Seats to (225) but Foxy uncle JR’s original intentions and all the ill effects of proportionate representative system (PRS). 125 first past the Post system electorates is just a hoodwinking FPPS inclusion with malicious intention of fooling the civic society and entire voters requested electoral reforms.

At the moment 196 polling divisions exist deprived of definite members and the last election exclusively under FPPS consisted of 160 electorates and the both have been reduced to 125, casting an expansion of each polling division by 56.8% from the present system and by 28% of the last total FPPS election.

Perpetrators of this particular proposals with 125 FPPS and 100 PR members, virtually wanted to "appoint" wealthy reprobates than from a meaningful election for both FPPS and PR, since an average educated cannot effort to contest the election - if implemented.

Therefore approved formula will not address the issues of too large polling divisions and colossal amount of money being spent by the candidate even if laws passed against it. 

Reduction of FPPS electorates is a deliberate attempt to graft the worst effects of PRS to spoil the best effects of FPPS and mislead the reformists regarding FPPS against the future attempts as well.

This foxy – proxy system will not by any means serve the purposes, the reforms are intended for but will serve permanently the UNP the intentions for which the Proportionate Representative System have been intended since 1980.

Therefore all necessary concerted actions should be taken to avert these proposals being legally inducted in Parliament and should be replaced by the recent nine member cabinet subcommittee promulgated proposals of 255 = 165 FPPS + 90PRS
