When you change my words and then put quotation marks around them as
though I wrote them, that makes you a liar. This should be obvious.
Saying that you did not change the meaning is not a defense.

I see that your BCF chess rating is 1295. That makes you a Class D
player. This means that you are even weaker than George John, who does
not play chess at all.

Anybody with such a low rating is clearly unqualified to judge whether
the games were thrown or not. You would not know that in the position
reached that I demonstrated on my chess video is such a clear draw
that the right thing for the players to do then was to shake hands and
go home.
Now, you are probably going to claim that your 1295 rating in England
is equivalent to something much higher like 1995 in the US. We often
hear claims like that from players in Europe. It is not true. If you
really believe that, why do not you come over here for the World Open
and enter the Under-1400 section with a $10,000 first prize? I can
assure you that Bill Goichberg will take your money without hesitation
and you will not win. You are probably overrated at 1295 because you
got that rating by losing all your games, going 0-5 with no wins and
no draws in a class tournament..
