Here is my interpretation of events -
Ward has nothing to say other than through his solicitor (Swan)
Swan says - evidence of copyright & originality is needed
Alan Brunwin has done the following  -
1/ Discussed & shown his work with Mr Tom Brake M.P.
2/ The Greater London Assembly are aware of Alans work as "Hoppy The Hopper Bus" was
put forward to them to promote people using London Transport
3/ Alan believes Ken Livingstone has seen his work
4/ Andrew Pelling, Councilor of the G.L.A. will confirm Alans work was shown to The Greater London Assembly
5/ When "Hoppy The Hopper Bus" was created by Alan a standard letter spelling out that this could be the next Thomas the Tank engine, if taken into production, was sent out to at least 40 T.V. & production company's, along with one story and the cast description to each character of Hoppy the Hopper Bus Series, along with a photo of Alan standing on a Bus, Alan used to be a Bus Driver
6/ Alan has many Letters from T.V. Company's , on  Bus Series going back many years.
7/ Alan has original copyrighted documents & drawings to this effect
Alan was & still is prepared to show Swan evidence in person & has said so in writing
however Chatsworth T.V. - STILL ignore all the above
Swan told the Daily Express he needed to see Alans work & said Alan had not supplied any evidence of originality or of copying -  yet Swan says that on the 31st May he saw Alans work & stated that the PICTURES Alan sent were nothing like Busy Buses as the windows & wheels were different - er yeah right !! Swan also stated that stories about Buses were not unusual
Swan also stated he could see no point in meeting Alan to discuss copyright
