      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

        Anyway.....what does it mean for us, the lowly contractor?

        Should we be panicking?

        Or will this mean permie redundancies...which will in turn mean a better contractor market?

        Or is it all just sh*te?
        No no, don't panic. According to my sample (of one, me) you will get a 6 months extension and a 7% rate increase.

        Boomed!

              I don't know a bank I would trust with my money anyway.

              2nd week of extension is spent in vacation in far East spending the cash pefore inflation eats it.
