I've also heard the Prime Minister is looking at some alternative metrics to slot into the "daily updates" space.
With that in mind, here is my list of metrics for the Prime Minister's consideration.

That's quite a list! It would be far more illuminating to have these addressed than the pap we are compelled to endure by these sociopaths.
What we really need is a few people with a commodity called "commonsense" running our country. Labour seem to go for the divisive, activist types. National appear to endorse the corporate types. How about we all vote in more practical, hands on, get the country back on track types? Forget the Treaty settlements, forget the wasteful, feel good projects. Definitely scrub the mandates which are an abomanation against our Bill of Rights.
Thank you Jane. We all just need to keep the faith.
Very clever, very sad, but very true. Well said, Jane.
Thanks Jane when are we going to get a news media that pushes the news out like the Aussies have on channel 85 sky. We desperately need the truth so keep it up.Ian
That is just the first page>
Awesome list. Can you send that to The Platform?
Count the number of well built, easily heated contained room state houses , homes to families for decades, now sent to landfill, at 15 tons a time, whilst citzens waset hours sorting their rubbish for sham recycling.
Count the number of non pure colonists not charged for obvious offences.
List of how many baby's have been murdered this month (oppsI mean aborted).
