Justifying his act of publicly eating a raw fish, SJB MP Dilip Wedaarachchi yesterday told Parliament that he was happy about his act.

“I have been appreciated globally for my act,” he added. Wedaarachchi recently ate a raw fish during a media conference to prove that people could eat fish without fear despite the spreading of COVID-19 through the Peliyagoda Fish Market. (YOHAN PERERA AND AJITH SIRIWARDANA)

Are we in a clowns paradise

Until our boorish, almost entirely male political class is supplanted by educated individuals whose overriding commitment is to public service not self-aggrandisement, we can't hope to arrest our tragic material and moral decline.
