One of the difficulties is that I do not accept that a lot of what you say is factual as being factual. Again, I will simply reiterate that if you want to question the ombudsman about their conduct you should avail yourself of that opportunity. I am not going to put myself between the ombudsman and you in relation to what I think are some questions that you have been asking where, factually, I cannot even say whether they are accurate or not.
