Mark the Week: Health's problem is not cooked bread

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. 

 

Toast: 2/10 

A sad example of how you lose the plot when you are down a rabbit hole. At $30b a year, health's problem is not cooked bread. So stop saying dumb things. 

 

The Grand Tour: 8/10 

It's out this time next week. I've seen it - it's worth it. 

 

The All Blacks: 4/10 

A ten-point lead should never be surrendered. 

 

The TMO: 1/10 

If it's that inept, if it gets that in the way of a good game, then what's the point? 

 

Road funding: 7/10 

Because we love roads. All roads, big roads, wide roads, roads that allow us to get places and go vroom-vroom. 

 

Spring: 8/10 

How good? A warm winter and longer days now daylight saving is coming. Life is good.

the dodgy button. Somebody, do you want to name names?
They did the investigation, They dropped coffee down at god
all sticky, and they put a new one in. Anyway,
where am I seven twenty three timed out to mark
the week? A little piece of news and current events.
It's more exciting than Nobbie Clark at a potluck dinner

(00:22):
coffee seven. I don't know if we should be giving
it at seven now that you've said there, oh good
point four, very good, eight ninety four, seventy five, six
twenty five. I reckon they could charge whatever they like, actually,

(00:45):
Are the Grand Tour eight stead of bastard. After all
these years, it's out this time next week. I've seen it.
It is well worth it. A Brazil three spanning X
is more about politics and cleaning up content not that
the content doesn't need cleaning up. But read dis Silver's
comments this week on musk there is your clue there Elon,
speaking of which six called out our Prime minister on
Aasia tour this week. Ask yourself how many major business

(01:08):
leaders globally would have the slightest clue as to where
Luxon is right now? O Zimpic six this week it

it gets in the way of a good game. What's
the point retail spending five? Because although it's down for
another month, is not down as much? And then sin
l A seven more money familiar. They brought a sign
that the green shoots light at the end of the tunnel.
Whatever you want to call it, is in fact evolving
in front of our very eyes. Are the artgoing treasury
head for anyone who advocates more taxes dangerous? But the

(01:50):
SMP report into our economy in debt three, the current
account and counts of debt as bad as anywhere in
the whole world. And that is a lesson and a
reminder that once we get out of this not to
head back there again. Road funding seven. It was a
long time coming, wasn't it? Because we love roads, big roads,

(02:10):
white roads. Roads that a loudy go play and spring
eight A good is springkay. We had a warm winter,
lovely warm winter, longer days. Daylight saving is just a
couple of days away, a couple of weeks away. Life
is good. That is the week copies on the website
