Poor Lady

Retired Big Lady has decided to raise a hat collection and seek public assistance to raise the Rs. 3 million fine she has to pay the Supreme place. Having been found guilty of the raw deal on the Edge of Waters, the Retired Big Lady is now playing on public sympathy to show that she is extremely poor.

Rugby mess

Sporty Big-House is in a rugby mess, having sacked the men who do the selections at national level. He has appointed a new panel, headed by a confidant and ex-employee of My-Lick, who has been running the puppet show. Big-House has even been criticised by his C-pack members.

Shadow Cabinet

Ra-Blue has raised a hornet's nest by naming a shadow cabinet. Those not selected are planning to cross the 'Well' during the Bud-Jet. A helpless Elephant Party leader has deployed more informants to do the rounds and report all green talks. After all, he is not safe now.

Honest Tree-Man

Ra-Blue has fallen out with his party's Chair the man - the Tree-Man, who spoke the bitter truth on the Anuradhapura explosion and commended the efforts taken by MR to eradicate terrorism. Ra-Blue does not have the guts to take on the Tree-Man but only uses his boys to do the rounds.

Media freedom

At last week's media heads' meeting at the TT Palace, MR congratulated Champi girl, the Ed type at the Mirror that is daily, on her appointment as the Asian head of the Common-Wealth press. But that angered the man who calls himself the saviour of free media Su-Nanda who withdrew a statement in less than 24 hours.

Elephant dance

The Elephant Party rebels have planned another special elephant dance during next month's Bud-Jet. They have given Ra-Blue time until the final voting later next month to decide whether the leader would implement the reforms at the Kotha that is Siri.
