Reference :- Having learnt from the public relations disaster known as Robotdebt , the government has developed a new version .

Reference :-  The first Robotdebt was a 720 million quid disaster . Undeterred , the government has launched Robotdebt 2 . 

It looks like 11,000 citizens  ( or so ) might have received too much financial assistance during the Covid pandemic .  The government wants  to be reimbursed .   Of course they have left the sordid process of taking money from the poor in the hands of capable and experienced private debt collectors .   There will be various charges and interest to be paid , that goes without saying .  And at the expense of the Robotdebtors of course , one can't expect the government to cover the cost of any mistakes . 

 Anyway , the good news is that Australia's 31 billionaires have seen their fortunes increase by 85 billion quid so far during the pandemic  . Doubtless those billions will trickle down to the rest of us in due time . 

 "  Do you think much will trickle down to us out here at Kooralya ? " ,  Monte said . 

 " I think most of it will trickle down to the Cayman Islands . " ,   Ken junior said . 

 Personally I am not sure where the Cayman Islands are , having never visited the Great Barrier Reef myself .   But what with the coral bleaching and all , a billion or two to save the polyps would be money well spent . 

 Your comrade , Ken .
