    I just don't think Labour and the unions have got just how much sh1t we are in, just where do they think we are going to get the money to funds these fantastic pension schemes, pay rises etc.

    I have read today just how much we are still planning to borrow until after the next election, and there seems to be no plan to actually start paying this debt off.

    Cannot see that there is anything that has affected the contractor market, except that we now have to work an extra year before we can take a pension
    What about the growth figures and the unemployment and inflation etc, already affecting the market, lot of those in banking had to swallow a rate cut (except TestMangler coz he's hard)
