'Accountants' and 'business advice' do not belong in the same sentence unless you are discussing their inability to provide business advice.

ICAEW has no interest in censuring their members for misconduct and accountants sit there in blissful ignorance asking for their last bill to be paid, as you are handing them a pre-action protocol letter following their negligent advice or failure to file documents with HMRC.

Now talk about a profession that is completely protected from the meddling of government or the demands for lower fees or greater transparency by the public.

Accountants are almost on a par with doctors. I cannot see them ever losing any work and am just waiting for a judgment to be handed down confirming that they cannot be found to be liable in negligence for conducting probate work.
