Can anyone shed light on this one please:

27A 100 per cent of B and A, perhaps, but not L. (6)

_ E _ T _ R

The only thing I can think of at the moment is DEXTER which is Right not L (left) but seems to have zero relevance to the remainder of the clue.

Any suggestions welcome!

B + (L)ETTER = BETTER. Very loose definition (How are you feeling? Better. 100%! - not quite the same thing)

Wait forever for a bus, then three show up at once.

Thank you buddy, rusty, rafflesthegt, through weight of popular opinion you're probably right...
... but I have to say that I think it's a pretty poor clue all the way round!

Indeed - a micturate poor clue.
