Mark the Week: What we have seen this week could not have been done any more spectacularly

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.   The Monarchy: 9/10 "What we have seen this week could not have been done any more spectacularly. Or, in fact, done by anyone other than the British. It's been fitting and amazing."   King Charles and the Pens: 2/10 "You can't hide from that sort of reaction and behaviour. As much as we wish him well, Operation Spring Tide didn’t need either event."   The Public Holiday: 7/10 "I was surprised at just how big the pushback was. But you know we will all like it on the day, and it is just a one off."   Covid Traffic Light System Being Scrapped: 7/10 "Because most of the fear, misery, control, and madness has, at last, been dumped."   The Stopping of Daily Covid Numbers: 8/10 "That's the best part of all. The obsession with those numbers, that daily grind of power freaks, and guesswork was phenomenally unhealthy."   James Shaw: 7/10 "Pleased he got his job back. Hopefully the idiots that tried it on won't be back."   Te Pukenga - The National Polytech: 2/10 "CEO gone, and now the CFO gone. Just how many people does it take to walk before Chris Hipkins scratches his head long enough to work out it's not a good idea?"   Phillip Arps and the School Board Election: 7/10 "Because democracy won by him not winning. He came last, proving people can actually work it out for themselves."   The All Blacks: 6/10 "Crisis over. Another win next week. And all in all, it wasn’t the end of the world, was it?"   LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
