An elderly couple are sat having a morning coffee. Ethel, the wife, is opening the mail.
Ethel:
Darling, it says here that we've been overpaid on our pension.
George:
That can't be right, we've been struggling to see ourselves through each week!
Ethel:
Exactly, what with the shopping trips to Milan, luncheon with the ladies at the Ritz every Tuesday, your Marriot gym membership, Ascot, paying the chef and the maid, we're only left with £2.89.
George:
Bloody Brown!
Have they been massively overpaid?
Otherwise this one feels a bit to linear without enough of a surprise twist.

Not really, the correction next year means some will see sub inflation increases and some may see a small reduction.....all in all it's no big deal. Tories agree, help the aged agree, etc.
In which case the angle I'd be taking is more along the lines of; we're broke, oh now we're slightly less broke, now we really are broke.
