Dr. RachelƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ JoyceƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 
Conservative Parliamentary Candidate, HarrowƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ West
Middlesex, UK

Dear Rachel Joyce:

I have just read your statement, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”British candidate calls Tamils victims of genocideƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ pronounced in the heart of Harrow West.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

And you are a Conservative, and Enoch Powell must be turning in his grave and laughing at you saying, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-I knew that my Conservative colleagues 42-years down the road will be kissing brown Tamil butts to get elected to parliament.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I donƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t think Powell would have expected this to happen in the Conservative snobbish patch of Middlesex county where in the late 1950s, early ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”60s lived men who were garbed in bowler-hats, Harrods starched white detached collars on blue-striped shirts worn under black pin-stripped suits, with a Times of London neatly folded under their arm-pits and swinging neatly wrapped brollies, walking down the street and popping their Rule Britannia noses up if ever they encountered a dark face walking down the street.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  This was when I used to live in LondonƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Pimlico.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  MyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦myƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦myƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦lady, what a turn of events in almost half a century.

What fascinated me was to find last December when I visited England and stayed in Harrow to read a store front notice board close to Harrow-on-the-Hill ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Tube Station announcing a Room to Let which said ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Only Tamils Need ApplyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, when in the 50s and 60s such announcements would say ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Room to Let, No Blacks or ColouredsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I also found the place was dotted with brown faces, mostly Tamils I suppose, and the Harrow air wafting with curry and masala smells compared to egg and bacon smells that I was used to.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I now understand why you said, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-I will work with the Tamils to get the acts perpetrated on the Tamils classed legally as a genocide so that the UN Convention can be used to address the problem.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

Rachel, if you had asked me, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Do you think I should kiss the Tamil ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ senior SubramaniamƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s butt, because there are 10 votes in that house, grandfather, grandmother, husband, wife, three adult children, aunty, uncle and nieceƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ I would have said, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Go ahead and kiss the butt after all it was your grandfather who was a planter in Ceylon (Sri Lanka) who ordered SubramaniamƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s grandfather who was an underpaid servant, to bring him and his wife a pot of Ceylon Orange Pekoe and a plate of ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ buttered scones with Hartleys strawberry jam when they were soaking in the Nuwara Eliya sun outside the Tea PlanterƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s bungalow in the hills ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  colonial Ceylon.

But I will not accept your vulgar, immoral, unprincipled, offensive, inexpiable and unpardonable charge on the Sri Lankan Government of Tamil Genocide, disappearances of Tamils, moving in of Sinhalese into traditional Tamil areas, the use of concentration-style camps for internally displaced Tamils, burning down of the Jaffna Library, and refusal to act on their Batta Kotte (Vaddukkodai) resolution.

Rachel, I mean Dr. Rachel Joyce, being a medical person if you really believe in what you charged Sri Lanka with, I think you ought to get your head examined by one of your colleagues.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I wish you were prescribed a morning laxative the day you made that statement as it would have cleared your constitution including your mind to think properly, clearly, sincerely and morally.

ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-GenocideƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ you charged.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  That is loaded with unsubstantiated rumours.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  It would be easily explained to be a God damned lie when the Sri Lankan armed forces rescued 288,000 Tamils in May 2009 from a sliver of beach sand in the east coast after the Tamil Tigers had herded them for two-and-one-half years from the west coast when the Tamil Tiger terrorists were on the run when their butts were whipped by the Sri Lankan Armed Forces. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The Sri Lankan government looked after them in welfare camps until they were resettled. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The Sinhalese community was the ones who cooked them a million meals a day to feed these rescued Tamils three meals a day and not letting them starve to death. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Refusing the Tamil teenagers and adult men condoms so that they couldƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  do their thing when their hormones kicked in and produce kids like rabbits to increase their Tamil population.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-GenocideƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, you said lady.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Just cut out that stupidity.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ThatƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Pony and Trap, and you know it.

How dare you try to claim for the Tamils the pre-1948 jungle land in the North and East of the island where the aboriginal Veddhas co-habited with mosquitoes, wild elephants, sloth bears,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  leopards, monitors, peacocks and honey suckers and not a single Tamil were seen in the vicinity.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Your claim of this land for the Tamils is a couple of cobblers awls lady, you better cut out that horse-dung out from your husting strategy. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ It is not nice and immoral. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Go ahead and kiss the Tamil brown butts if you feel so desperate for their votes but keep away from Sri Lankan affairs as it is none of your business.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  How dare you!

As for the burning of the Jaffna Library, you cannot place the blame on the Government for what the vandals did having been provoked by the separatist Tamils for decades. If the Sri Lankan Government was that sinister they wouldnƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t make an effort to rebuild a state-of-the-art library for the Tamil community and start to stack floor to ceiling with books.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  You are just being a Berk, arenƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t you Joyce?

Cor..BlimeyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦Lady.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ArenƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t you nuts to charge the Sri Lankan Government for refusing to act on the Tamil Batta Kotte (Vadukkodai) Resolution?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Would you have given Southhall to the Sikh immigrants as their separate state in the 1960ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s, or the West Indian blacks, Brixton for that matter?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I doubt your Conservatives nor would the Labourites have parted with those patches of LondonƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s land. That is exactly what you are requesting the Sri Lankan Government to do.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  To give the Tamils their separate state carved out of one- third of the island bordered by 66% of the coast line.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ And who the hell do the Tamils think they are any way, to claim that real estate to be theirs.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Nonsense! You must be joking Joyce.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  That itƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s a load of cobblers.

Joyce, kiss the brown Tamil butts if you have to if that could get their votes, but PeteƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s sake keep out of Sri Lankan politics which you know very little and sweet bugger-all.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And more over, it is none of your business.

Sincerely,

Asoka Weerasinghe
