I get the feeling that you would rather this was brushed under the carpet and ignored rather than facing the issue and accepting that there is a problem.

Rather than wishing that it would disappear out of some misguided flag waving pride why not face up to it and try and force it to be dealt with.
Surely thats the responsible thing to do.
