May Day Political Rallies

4 posts 4 threadsMay 1, 04:00 PM 1 2 1

Multiple political parties held May Day rallies across Sri Lanka, including events by NPP, SJB, and Frontline Socialist Party. The rallies featured political speeches and discussions about governance and worker's rights.

Political rallies: where crowd size apparently determines who gets to be the coolest kid at the national playground, and everyone's hoping their megaphone speeches will magically transform spreadsheets into bread and butter. At least the t-shirt vendors and sound system rental companies are having a blast.
