What will you do with the findings of the committee? Nothing new, seen these before. At least you must agree our parliamentarians are of course thugs.

What are you talking speaker I watched the way senior members of govt handling these are encouraging others to do so you too are a spineless person

First take action against the MPs breached the code of conduct, in the 52 day government in 2018, by splashing chili powder, etc.

Another bloody frigging committee. Will this ever end? Nothing concrete comes out of these, just a waste of taxpayers money.

The fact that a committee like this is formed speaks for itself.

Appointing committees has already become a joke in the country as end result was always zero. It's a mere wastage of public money. If anyone wants to serve his country, not only he should have the power, he should also have the"Will".

Unruly behavior can be arrested by the President with a face to face meeting with the thugs. Speaker has lost control

Johan Monday, 06 December 2021 02:17 PM

Parents of these Rowdy mps should be blamed For not bringing them up with discipline and moral Characters

Nadi Karunaratne Tuesday, 07 December 2021 10:18 AM

Don't be daft. The whole gang are held in contempt by the people - no trust and no confidence in them at all. Lack the manners, intergrity and intellect to do anything for the country. Good for lining their pockets and bellowing into microphones and they call themselves honourable and excellency.
