The season for political pole-vaults is round the corner again, they say. Political circles are now abuzz with the story that two-once Green Ministerial ones of the former Betel leaf regime hailing from Wayamba are set to return to the Mahagedara.

One of the would be-pole-vaulters once moved closely with the princes of the former royal family and he is now facing a series of court cases and also served a temporary stint in a state-run lodge in connection with one of the cases. His businesses which flourished when he was in power have now gone on the rocks.
The other politico said to be planning to turn Green again was an outstanding ‘manape’ scorer from both sides of the great divide. The man is so ambitious that he is not prepared to settle for anything short of a key portfolio or a leadership position, they say.

But a snag is in their way. The leaders of the two main parties have reached an agreement not to welcome pole-vaulters from the other side.
