At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.
Trump: 7/10
He has had a significantly positive week: SCOTUS sacking people has gone his way, deals with Indonesia, the Philippines, and Japan, and Australia flipped on beef. Only downside is he's stuck in the Epstein files, and he has cankles.
Nicola 鈥渕ainland鈥 Willis: 4/10
The old "I'm going to teach them a thing or two" trick blew up in her face.
NCEA: 6/10
We will wait for the detail, but the idea that the joke that is NCEA gets blown up is no bad thing.
Colbert: 7/10
The defence was "but he is number one". But the reality is being number one only counts if you're making money. He wasn鈥檛.
The helipad appeal: 1/10
This country is too full of timewasters. We had a hearing, everyone had their say, someone won and someone didn鈥檛. That鈥檚 life.
Sky TV: 8/10
A small bag of lollies for a buck is good enough, far less a whole TV station.
