Mark the Week: Not all polls are created equal

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.   Auckland Transport: 2/10   In a week in which a lot of people looked exceedingly ordinary Auckland Transport was as good as it got with its "Drive to Elton" campaign.   Wayne "Drongo" Brown: 4/10 I don’t think anyone, not even Wayne, thinks it went well this week.   The media's obsession with Wayne: 4/10 It’s a bit obvious that they hate him because he beat their mate Efeso Collins and he won’t kowtow to their every whim.   Inflation: 4/10 7.2 percent isn’t the answer. Not going down at all isn't the answer - a lot of the world is now dropping so why aren't we?   Chris Hipkins: 7/10   One week in he's basically done nothing wrong. Got a poll bounce and handed out more free money.   The Women's FIFA World Cup: 3/10 If the Saudi's are confirmed, this is a mess. We can't on one hand be all high and mighty over human rights, while at the same time turning a blind eye as host, while pocketing the cash and pretending it’s got nothing to do with us.   Polls: 8/10 We love polls and we've had a couple this week, including the media merger one that has hardly anyone supporting the idea. And thus exposing the other poll from the public media wonks who insisted there was a pile of support. Not all polls are created equal.   Penny Wong: 1/10 Goes to Britain to tell them to address their colonial past. There is nothing worse than a condescending, limousine lefty from the colonies telling you how to run your country.   LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
