Mark the Week: Now head down, bum up, let's get it done

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.
 
Planes and Chaos at Airports: 4/10
"Because although not everything is in your control, a lot is. And enough, I suspect, to overall do better than they have.
Heathrow asked airlines to stop over-selling flights. That's called greed."
 
Covid Red Light: 6/10
"Because we aren't going into it despite all the whispers.
But if the school holidays don’t work, stand by."
 
RATs being Made Free: 6/10
"Oh, the irony.
The government that couldn't commandeer enough of them, the government that insisted PCRs were all we needed, and yet look at us now."
 
ACT: 8/10
"25 years in Parliament. That’s worth celebrating."
 
The Government's Mega Polytech Merger: 3/10
"Can someone call us if they see the bloke who is supposed to be running the place?
And can he tell us why they are in the hole to the extent they are?"
 
The Government's Gang Plan: 6/10
"Because it shows if you have a couple of ministers awake, you can actually do something.
As opposed to pretending nothing is happening."
 
Andrew Little: 2/10
"Because it shows if you have a minister awake you can actually do something instead of pretending it's not a crisis."
 
Number of People Leaving New Zealand: 6/10
"It's not as bad as some had imagined.
Yes, we are losing more people than are arriving but it wasn’t a stampede."
 
Christchurch Stadium: 8/10
 
"Thank God for that. Would have been a higher score if they hadn't mucked around for so long. That's the lesson here.
Now head down, bum up, let's get it done."
 
The All Blacks: 6/10.
"Because a loss is not the disaster or the sacking offence too many have made it out to be."
