Why Mr.John raised this matter now?

If he is a bold person, Why did not he raised this matter that time?

Thanks

If his family/surname is "John" this is okay. We see a lot of English users refer to "Jim Smith" as Mr. Jim and not Mr.

We see a lot of English users refer to "Jim Smith" as Mr. Jim and not Mr. Smith, or "Peter Cooper" as Mr. Peter. Don't do this. Does your reader know what "at that time" refers to?

Argh. The "strikeout" function doesn't work for me. Neither do colors any more apparently.

The "d" in raised was supposed to have a line through it.
