What would you do?

When you don't care anymore - that's when you can negotiate. Decide what it would take to stay - 50% more pay? 50% fewer hours with the same daily?

Then quit if you don't get it.

That's the theory - I can "blame" the required increase on the two-year rule and bump up the rate accordingly. I'd be astounded if they pay more (consultancy is cutting all rates apart from on this project), but it's a hiding to nothing - match the rate or I'll go.

That said, I have nothing in writing yet for an extension, so I may be the exception to the "everyone has been extended" rule - I was on holiday when it was announced, so maybe it was "everyone here has been extended. Thank f*** that useless sod that does nothing all day and fleeces us for it is on holiday..."
