Can't report any sheep riots from New Zealand I'm afraid, though there is the true story of our local council which is planning to build an overpass over a highway so the farmer who insists on driving his dairy cows to milking every day doesn't upset the motorists and (worse!) soil the road with their excretions...
Seriously though - the Fire Commission which employs all New Zealand firefighters has announced it is sacking all 1600 of them and telling them to apply for the several hundred less jobs that remain.
