Economia has a rather misleading headline wrt a debate between Mark Spofforth, partner, Spofforths, and former ICAEW president
and
Ian Fraser, financial journalist and author of Shredded: The Rise and Fall of RBS.
The debate entitled "Can accountants be trusted?", aside from degenerating into a seemingly ill tempered slanging match, actually centres around the activities of large accounting/auditing firms rather than the activities and ethics of accountants per se.
A far more appropriate headline would have been "Can large firms be trusted?"
Next time economia might consider using the services of an invigilator in order to keep the debaters on topic, and calm.
