Leader of the House Bimal Rathnayake took a swipe at former President Ranil Wickremesinghe, commenting on his explosive interview with international media, Al Jazeera recently.

Addressing the Parliament today, Minister Rathnayake hinted at the former President as a person with a Ferrari licence, hinting at the latter’s previous statement that “someone with a Ferrari license does not spend time with L-Board drivers”. 

Ranil Wickremesinghe made the remarks in response to media reports suggesting his re-entry into Parliament.

Hinting at the comment, Minister Rathnayake took a jab at the former President’s controversial interview with Al Jazeera.

“The person with a Ferrari licence has crashed into Al Jazeera and suffered brain damage. As Minister of Transport, I extend my sympathies,” Minister Rathnayake said. (Newswire)
