UNP MP Harin Fernando told a news conference a short while ago that nearly 20 government MPs including senior ministers are currently in discussion with the party and predicted there would be many activities in the coming year.
Meanwhile he also said that the inclusion of MP Sanath Jayasuriya in Sri Lanka’s squad for next year’s World Cup was a sign of politicization of the cricket team (YP)

UNP from recent times have started saying this story many a time. But, as we saw day after day, it was only mere talk. So most probably, this is just another talk given by an UNP MP.

don't insult the right honorable Sanath Jayasuriya. Just as Ranils is the lifetime opposition leader Sanath should be in the World Cup squad for his lifetime.

Super news. Sanath's news was always known. He might collapse after the first match. I think the new UNP government is in the horizon. Hurrah!

So Sanath Jayasooriya is not there in the 20 MP list :) Senior ministers can't be as foolish as this fellow thinks. At least try to get Paba back :)

May be they didn't get what they wanted from the govt and they are planning to join UNP. Just say "NO" to them. Frogs, they only know to jump, jump, and jump.
