Joan Ryan MP and Siobhain McDonagh MP have called on the Foreign Secretary to “withdraw Brigadier Priyankara Fernando’s diplomatic papers and expel him” from the UK, after he was filmed making ‘throat-cutting gestures’ to Tamils protesting outside the Sri Lankan High Commission in London, on Sunday 4 February.
Ryan and McDonagh, the Vice Chair and Senior Vice Chair of the Tamil All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG), also said in their letter to Boris Johnson MP that the conduct of Brigadier Fernando – Sri Lanka’s Defence Attaché to the UK – was “inappropriate, unacceptable and threatening […] from someone who is serving in an official capacity as a guest of this country.”

They have been reported to police and the Sinhalese person told me that he is going to use this brigadiers behaviour to prove that all SL service personnel active or retired behave the same way even in UK, as they think that they have total impunity as in Srilanka for whatever crime they commit.

Sinhalese Aryan most of the present day Sinhalese both low and high born are recently arrived ,assimilated South Indian immigrants( Tamils) . Sri Lankan Tamils have marginally higher North Indian DNA compared to the Sinhalese 28% to 25% and there is very little Aryan amongst the Bengali. They are Dravidian or Dravidian Mongol. The Original Dravidians were all Tamil or proto/semi Tamil speakers. Just like the Elu dialect that was spoken by the Naga and Yakka in Sri Lanka, which was a simple semi Tamil Dravidian dialect. If this general’s family name is Fernando, he will definitely be a Karawa of recent immigrant Indian Tamil origin now beating the anti Tamil drum , like the vast majority of these South Indian(Tamil) immigrants assimilated or assimilating into the Sinhalese identity. You now see many Colombo Chetties and Bharathas( Paravan) who until a generation ago were classified as Tamil but not now, beating the anti Tamil drum.

This has nothing to do with Sri Lankan Tamils but to do with separatist who killed and want to kill and have only an ethnocentric Tamil race country. They slaughtered moderate Tamils, plenty of Sinhalese including those in temples and drove and slaughtered the muslims in the north and east!

Unless there is a photo shot or video to show Brigadier Fernando making the said sick gesture of threat to the protesters, the UK authorities will not likely take action to deport him on criminal charges let alone terrorism charges.That said.
Even if that evidence was available it would be suppressed by the SL diplomats in London by offering a big bribe to the demonstrater who has that evidence.

Dayan speak for your country alone.
Besides no decent citizen will be incensed by the behaviour of the MP’s but praise them for being on the side of humanity. You must so wish for the government continuing the mass murder of the Tamil people.
Death threat gestures by the armed forces towards the Tamils are routine. A couple of months ago Prof. Hoole reported that he was threatened by a sargent at the Mullaitivu courts who after carefully checking Professor’s Election Commission ID virtually thrust his index finger deep into his chest as if he would shoot him. He did it boldly in front of all the people gathered outside the courts including people from the Professor’s own office and other police personal.
What you see is a classic death threat: Death threats are also part of a wider campaign of abuse targeting a person or a group of people. Here we see signs of state terrorism, and how comfortable the Sri Lankan government is with mass murder etc..
.Dayan you have sold your soul for position and all that free education money spent by the tax payers on you could have been better used by somebody else who possesses logic.

The accusation was “Lankawe embassy in Paris imported criminals from Colombo and trashed Tamil youths’ throats. (Literally Shot). The case was covered in that neat way so even the Paris Police did not solve it. In the light of this British incident Paris Police should reopen that case.
American Ambassador Jalia is held in America for crimes. Ukraine (Russian) Ambassador Udayanga held in Dubai on his way to America for crimes. Brazil Ambassador ran out of there for crimes.

Dear Dayan, you are living in a cuckoo’s land. UK is fully functioning democracy which values freedom of expression and peaceful protest. Just because you have a pathological hatred towards LTTE, UK government is not going to dance to your tune. Both MPs who signed the letter are from labour, but they are representing all party parliamentary group for Tamils which includes MPs from conservatives and Liberal. For your information UK banned LTTE for its acts of killing non-combatants and dissidents, and not for its political principles of liberating Tamils from clutches of the racist terrorist Srilanka government. Even during war times LTTE flew their flags and organised meetings in UK which were permitted by the government. Even if they are fascists they are acting within the law of UK, and how dare a Srilankan military officer try to intimidate them. It is time UK government come hard on these Sinhala racists who are behaving like supremacists in a foreign soil. Do you know that LTTE flag was unfurled inside SL High Commission premises by a lawyer and author when he went to give a lecture there in 2015 on elephants in Srilanka.

Waving the Tiger flag is not illegal in western countries. Only In genocidal Sri Lanka and its partner in the Eelam Tamil genocide Hindia. You can wave the lion or cat or cheetah flag too and they will not do anything . However making these sort of threatening gestures to public demonstrating is illegal. By the way the tiger flag is the flag of the Cholas one of India’s greatest empires. It is because of these Tamil Cholas that Indian culture Hinduism/Buddhism spread to the Asia especially to SE Asia. The result of their rule are the world marvels like Borubudur, Angkor wat.

This moron, Fernando, should be recalled and cashiered (won’t happen as he undoubtedly got the job because of a political connection). His action provides ammunition for anti-Sri Lankan forces who want to portray the armed forces as uncivilized and brutish, and fully capable of atrocious war crimes. So he’s exhibit 1 for that argument.
Imagine if the British defence attache made a similar gesture to nationalists protesting before Prince Edward and asking for an apology for British colonialism. Sad to think that the country has sunk so low that it has to select an ass**** to represent the armed forces in London.
The problem with this country is that it has become so polarized that anything, however outrageous, is justified if it done by the favored party. No surprise then that the justification for this unbelievably stupid act comes from those who when confronted with brutal abductions, political killings, and ethnic violence only managed a shrug. True patriots should denounce this piece of slime who brings the army into disrepute.

Nobody knows if these mad dogs are trained in ISIS camps or trained in La La Country wild lion caves. Nobody knows these uncivilized animals ate human flesh in Lal La country wild lion caves or ate human flesh eating Sharks in Colombo rulers’ parties.
But this is what they did to Rajiv in a host country on a diplomatic invitation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwZeAKe74uk. This is not the first time the Lankawe Appe Aanduwa Aappa Diplomacy showing its true face.
Without waiting for Yasmin Sooka do what she did to Jagath Jayasuriya (Made him to run to Colombo from Brasilia with one leg shoe), Britain should throw this Mad Dog Vachon into Atlantic Ocean. Otherwise it will be security Challenge to Britain. This mad dog can attack human being on the London roads.

The Lankan Armed Services are segregated to the extreme of near mono-lingual recruitment. The culture is to consider Tamils as enemies. Brigadier Pryanka Fernando’s gesture is animal instinct.
In SL, Pryanka will never show such gestures to an unruly protest group of Sinhalese.
SL Armed Services have evolved into an Egyptian type. GoSL cannot and will not recall him.

Mitcham and Morden is a constitution equivalent to a den of tamil terrorist lovers. Not surprising this MP is struggling to safeguard her breadline and allowances from the big trough in Westminister.

Where is this cuckoo land.? How many cuckoos there?
The military man in UK should be given aheroes welcome in Sri Lanka, but he belongs to the wrong party,else he would not have been posted to London.
The throat cutting gesture is only a symbol, we must encourage these Tamil buggers to cut their throats. If that doesn’t work distribute free cyanide capsules. I will pay the bill for the first 100,000.

Percy the pathetic,
“I will pay the bill”
With what?
The only thing that you foolish, lazy, violent, racist, hateful, jealous and mean spirited Sinhalese can do is, send your women folk as slaves to the mid-east, spend/waste the hard earned money that they send, drink and rape your own daughters.

Jamis Panda,
What the Tamils in India could do was to go as slaves and serve colonial parasites. You could be a descendant of one of those slaves brought to Sri Lanka.

You could be descendant of South Indian mercenaries, Vellaikkara Padei. Ask your grandpa he might tell you some family secrets.

Yeppudi Sakkara mad dog. You buggers should stand to attention at the very mention of the name of this Sinhala hero who asked all you buggers to take a clean shave, and then do what Velu did to Mahattaya. It is universally agreed that Tamils are the scourge of this planet. They have to be exterminated or encouraged to take the pill. Not the effing contraceptive pill you goose! I am talking of the pill to eternal happiness. I encourage, nay appeal to all my para Demala brothers to either cut their own necks, self immolate, or take the effing pill. If all these fail then you are made of sturdier stuff like the heroic Sinhala people, and should continue leAding a moosala life. Poda Pandi.

First of all how did they organize a perotest like this?? It’s the LTTE a band terrorist groupe?? Why double standerds. If this was a ISIS support group will the UK government allow a protest like this??

FYI LTTE is a banned organisation in the UK and in many other western European countries. Could you find out from your High Commission in the UK whether Tiger Flag, T shirts portraying VP’s photos, Tiger Eelam map, ………… are banned in England.

If not banned why doesn’t Sri Lanka get them banned? Laksman Kathirgamar cannot be expected to
help the government.

Until most of LTTE’s hidden billions are traced Brits will let the carnival going provided they don’t resort to violence. Most probably Dr Gota’s Tamil boys are responsible for organizing such protests. Brits also do not want to drive the activists underground which would make it difficult to keep a tab on them. You need to be bit sophisticated to follow English practical logic.

Therefore you just forget the whole thing.
