    Every couple of days or so there's a new article on the CUK frontpage and its either IT and/or contracting is going down the pan or IT and/or contracting is reaching new heights. Each time different companies are quoted so really no bugger knows...

    Is this the case or are things going to get a lot worse for us before they get better?
