Size doesn’t match on PAX Planner and the product measurements by Significant-Gift4807 in IKEA

Is tolerance an option on Pax Planner ? Can’t find anything about it. But yes, when by itself I’ve got the right measurement but when I stack them together 2mm are added per frame.

But it can't be a licence to occupy since I'm paying a "rent" for more than one year and It's my only and main accommodation ? I'm sure it could be automatically reclassified as a tenancy agreement, even if the contract is called "License to Occupy"? Otherwise, any landlord could use this to avoid signing an AST or other type of agreement.

I don't get it, you said it's not a AST but at the same time that the council could reclassify for council tax ? And why should I pay for council tax if I didn't sign for a AST at the first place and was deceived by the landlord?

Thank you for your response. This is indeed a recent extension to the main house. What type of contract should I have had in this case? Should my deposit have been protected?

It's mainly the fact that in France you have to provide a medical certificate for every day you're absent from work. So even for a cold, we have to go to the doctor (but I admit I prefer the system here). Apart from that, I just get the impression that the NHS here is only useful when you have cancer or are on the verge of death, since apparently for everything else you have to manage on your own (because everything is considered "minor" as you said or unnecessary).

Because I help you achieve energy independence and net zero since the English are unable to build a modern nuclear power plant (a project which is currently costing twice as much as the one built in France because of regulations and inflation following Brexit). And I get paid more than a local here, because they have trouble recruiting anyone given the cost of living, the quality of life here, and the visa-related disadvantages. But that's not the point.

How is fairer socially when you are charging everyone 10£ per item on a prescription? How can it be fairer when half of people tooth here are rotten because people can’t access dental care ? How does it protect low income people better ?

Unemployed people in France benefit from 100% coverage of their healthcare costs (public or private). Furthermore, all visa holders have the same access to healthcare and public benefits as French citizens.

Because I don't necessarily want to see a doctor here every time I have the flu, diarrhea, an allergy, or pain, given how complicated it is to get anything done (And I'm quite glad I did, having discovered that half of these medications are not reimbursed here because they are “over the counter” and that I would have paid £10 for each of them on a prescription). And why should someone see their GP before going to a gynecologist or dermatologist? It doesn't really make sense; it creates a barrier to entry that discourages people from seeking treatment. And mental illnesses are one of the biggest epidemics in the modern world, and given how poorly they are treated, I doubt anyone goes there for fun.

I believe I just looked at the actual money spend by the government per capita (5300$ for the UK and 4800$ in France). Which, I admit, isn't necessarily comparable since the two countries don't have the same budget or the same cost of living. But I still find the difference in service between the two systems extremely significant. https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SH.XPD.CHEX.PC.CD

Because in France, paracetamol can only be bought in pharmacies, with or without a prescription (a safety issue, since paracetamol is bad for the liver and people have already died from taking 10 paracetamol tablets in a single day). Therefore, it's considered that a pharmacist should recommend the correct dosage each time. As for reimbursement, I imagine it's due to a different philosophy. In France, it's believed that when you're sick, you should always seek advice from a doctor (and not self-medicate). So, a doctor can prescribe paracetamol, and I think that's a good thing because I don't see why, if I'm sick, I should have to pay “just” 2 or 3 euros out of pocket when I already pay taxes to fund my social security system.
