Another absolute disaster waiting to happen... What are the conservative excuses excuses excuses?

At least in Scotland we can see the accounts where they have awarded themselves gold plated early retirement pensions!

Be interesting to see what areas have devolved mayors and what the party breakdown of the councils are. Councils are more incompetent and corrupt than Government.

Yes. The article I read didn't cover that kind of breakdown.

It's hard to see this going any other way than bad. Would love to see a bigger spotlight on councils and those in charge held to account rather than get "enhanced" early retirement benefits...

First, it's nett not net.
Second. Difficulty getting GP appointments is a decade old problem. And it has f**k all to do with migrants.
The elephant in the room is that tech is making huge numbers redundant. No politician wants to face this.
Tories don't give a s**t.
Labour knows it a gigantic problem and are avoiding it like they did when the credit crunch was looming.

First let's get the semantics out the way it is either net or nett it is a variant spelling. My accountant used to use nett and I asked him about it as thought it was me who was in the wrong he said most older people especially in accounting use nett but most younger people use net. Just about every news agency uses net it appears to be a generational thing with the spelling. To conclude there is no right to wrong.

Second letting nearly 1 million people into the country has a direct impact on GP appointments when there is already a lack of GP's, mass uncontrolled immigration started around 1993 with Blair so yes it's a decade + problem and mass uncontrolled immigration is a major factor in this

The elephant in the room is immigration to cope with demand last year we'd of needed to build a fully functional City the size of Leeds we couldn't build a village let alone a City. We'd have more jobs if Miliband stops his net zero ideology and concentrated on industry like steel that provides jobs and sustains other businesses but he's intent on turbo charging the Tory policy of killing what little British industry is left. Labour just attacked one of the most important industry's just the other week in farming.

Yes. Nett was the correct word. Americanisation has turned it into net. But Americans think colour is color. And a full stop is a period. And a boot is a trunk and bonnet is a hood.

PR + cards will nip it in the bud - but it's not going to happen as long as the Tories and Labour have a hole in there arse

The Oxford Dictionary also disagrees with you

Nett, variant of net, adj.

Of an amount, weight, etc.: free from, or not subject to, any (further) deduction; remaining after all necessary deductions have been made; after the deduction of tax, interest, etc. Also occasionally as n. Cf. gross adj. A.III.12a.

Lets settle this. I did literally process thousands of of invoice and delivery notes that ALL said nett. But if the current definition is net then so be it. Period.

Ok. That's a good one. Sorry I started this now. But I stil think I'm correct. You don't forget handling thousands of documents seeing nett not net.

It makes no difference, not even to HMRC or the IRS.

You can configure a companies accounting software or ledger to use NET or NETT. They just variants of the same thing.

When I was in the UK I would get invoices saying NET and sometimes NETT.

The same happens here in Canada.

A professional account or government department will know and interpret the same way.

You remind me of my Nan, she was never wrong, especially when coming to cooking roast potatoes.

I'm really baffled how anyone can reach position of cabinet minister and keep a criminal conviction, of which she pleaded guilty to, for ten years without Fleet Street finding out.

That's ok. Both my Nan's were extraordiinary women. Raising 3 kids through WW2 and beyond, alone because your husband was fighting and lost his life in March 1944. Maternal Nan had multiple jobs to support her bringing up her daughters after losing her husband to illness.
