I don't like people calling other people IGNORANT and ILLITERATE on this forum; there are other ways to make your points!!!

Everybody swear that they understand the PAN HISTORY and SOCIOLOGY but they have a real problem demonstrating the knowledge (which is ever changing, anyway). PAN MEN are who PAN MEN were and we should all understand that.

I know for a fact that there

I never vouched for RUSSELL PROVIDENCE!!!

There was an assumption on the FORUM that RUSSELL was a PAN TRINBAGO SPY and that he was actually Michael "Scobie" Joseph pretending to be some character named RUSSELL PROVIDENCE. And that exchange kept swirling around the forum -- but I did not buy

NV/CIP Beverley, Aquil and Gregory

I want to publicly condemn the alleged threats of Keith Diaz against Aquil and his band, as this dictatorial attitude must never be accepted, although Aquil  disgracefully  and embarrassingly admitted to encouraging it when it was perpetrated again

The CIP should already have had a shadow executive in place, or at least a steering committee ....

I did not write that line on this forum; some other fellah did; but the line just hit me this morning. The line hit me when I realized that the next PAN TRINBAGO election is in OCTOBER 2018, if the RIGHT HONOURABLE KEITH DIAZ decides to call it then.

The CIP is looking to influence 60% of 180 STEELBANDS and they are claiming to have BROAD SUCCESS. Which means that they have access to THOUSANDS of PAN MEN.

So how come they cannot select 20 men and bring them on this forum every morning loaded with
