If radio host and prime ministerial cheer squad leader Alan Jones is to be believed, Australians are simply gagging to hear more of Tony Abbott as they gobble down their breakfast.

"Now you people have been writing to me and saying, 'I want to hear more of the Prime Minister. You don't have the Prime Minister on enough', and so I said to the Prime Minister, 'Well look, we might try and talk to you a bit more often so that people can hear from you on what they're talking about in the pubs'," Jones revealed on Wednesday morning's show.

But the listeners, it is fair to say, may be feeling shortchanged.

A Fairfax Media analysis shows Jones actually spoke more than Mr Abbott in their latest interview on Sydney radio station 2GB. Jones accounted for 54.4 per cent of words spoken to Mr Abbott's 45.6 per cent, according to the government-supplied transcript.
