Read very slowly to maximise comprehension:

There is no skills shortage.
There are lots and lots of IT graduates, more than the industry needs.
There is a shortage of the top 1% of IT graduates.
There is a shortage of realistic expectations.
There is a shortage of people who want to work for half the market rate.
There is a shortage of contractors who think agencies are worthwhile.
There is a shortage of integrity in the IT recruitment industry.
