Calypso Monarch BACCHANAL for TUCO!!!

[Claude Gonzales]

Like everybody suing TUCO!!!

But I still think that they should put the ST VINCENT WOMAN in the finals (on principle) although I live in STONE COLD objection to ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION both in the MECCA and in CALIFORNIA.

“We contend that by virtue of our client’s long, undisturbed and frequent participation within your organisation, our client now has a legitimate expectation to participate in the National Calypso Monarch Competition 2017. We also wish to direct your attention to the fact that one cannot use the Adjudication Handbook 2017 to determine any issues to this matter, as our client is not a new member but a long-standing member,” Scotland wrote.

Claude...allow me to divert to a recent post totally unrelated in content but related by virtue of circumstance (if that makes any sense anyway)...You may remember a few days ago I advised Dr Delight not to take Panorama too seriously. One of my reasons was that a certain adjudicator queried the absence of a "modulation" in our Panorama offering this year. Given the details of the Lady Gypsy/Fya Empress debacle, don't you see we could have had a valid case if we had gone to court? In addition to audio, we have a score sheet that could prove that we indeed changed key from F to Eb and back. At the end of the day though, fighting for a place in a final after points had been given to all competitors is not our style. We however plan to inform the competition organizers of the adjudicator's error.

Do the rules permit her inclusion in the monarch competition? Did Allrounder and L.Gypsy get the same points? If so, why is one in and one out? Well, the answer to that one could be PNM. What the hell do I know.

The only and best way to deal with the mess is to get rid of ALL the people involved. Same applies to PanTrinbago. ALL mean Competitors and Organisors. E.O.S.

As I read it in the newspaper, the rules only say that the competition is "open to citizens of Trinidad and Tobago" which is pretty open ended and passive. Can't be exclusive if you use inclusive language.

TUCO has to be clear on what they will use as verifiable ID to determine the individual’s true identity/status, hence the reason for the skullduggery that goes on during the carnival season.

I read in one of the local papers, in T&T every individual has an ID number, a different passport number, a different driver’s permit number, a different NIS number, a different PAYE number and a different CDAP number. Legal citizenship status should not be difficult to establish if the process is already initiated.
