It is quite obvious that these systematic and serious attempts at undermining the Ombudsman have been orchestrated by the government/Labour Party. The two are now working in tandem, with the General Workers Union as axe-man.

That is exactly why he wrote to the Speaker of the House and not to the Prime Minister.
