By Shamindra Ferdinando Public Security Minister Rear Admiral Sarath Weerasekera, during Monday’s Cabinet meeting, has raised the issue of the UK promoting the separatist ideology by allowing the display of LTTE flags at the British parliament square.  Minister Weerasekera pointed out that LTTE flags were displayed alongside the Union Jack much to the disappointment of those who cherished the eradication of LTTE terrorism. British nationals of Sri Lankan origins displayed LTTE flags at a protest to mark the conclusion of the war on May 19, 12 years ago.  Minister Weerasekera told  The Island Monday night that he stressed the responsibility on the part of the government to seek a clarification in that regard from the British High Commissioner in Colombo Sarah Hulton. “Foreign Minister Dinesh Gunawardena endorsed concerns raised by me”, he said.
