Sir, let me stop you right there. Don't go there. Don't suggest for one minute that these are fabricated text messages. By doing so, sir, you are now impugning the integrity and the character of the source of this information.
If you have an issue with this, my suggestion is that you go back to your phone and that you scroll back to your communications with Mr. MacDonald. Furthermore, if that is gone, talk to your service provider. Service providers retain up to 10 years' worth of text messages.
With respect, don't go there. Don't use the word “alleged”. These are your words, and I've given you the opportunity to explain yourself.
I'll ask one further time. Why did you say you could not give us the full goods?
