In a dramatic turn of events, Former UNP Parliamentarian Joseph Michael Perera stormed into a UNP youth wing meeting in Ja-ela, chaired by former Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake, and lashed out at the organisers for sidelining him. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Perara’s main allegation was that the organisers failed to give him a speech at the event, although he is the UNP organiser for the Ja-ela electorate. <\/p>\n

The former Parliamentarian’s criticism was directed at Karunanayake and UNP MP Kavinda Jayawardena, the two main organisers of the event. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After Perera’s outburst, the organisers grudgingly agreed to give him a speech, but as he started the address, the microphones at the podium stopped working. Perera alleged it was a deliberate act to sabotage his speech. <\/p>\n

Despite the ‘breakdown’ of the microphone, Perera continued his speech and censured the UNP youth wing organisers for sidelining the party seniors. <\/p>\n

He also criticised the former Finance Minister over the latter’s famous “i don’t remember” excuse. <\/p>\n

“You don’t remember anything. If you continue to act like that. the party will go further down in this mire. I will teach you a good lesson,” the ex-Parliamentarian, who failed to secure his seat at the last Parliamentary election, asserted. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

While Perera was delivering his fiery speech, Karunanayake and jayawardena left the meeting, with some of their supporters.<\/p>\n
