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.
Vote counting: 2/10
They've told us for years reading and writing and math is an issue in our schools. Did the people who struggled end up at the Electoral Commission?
Mt Albert: 3/10
The election review leak whining about everyone except yourself is an insight into what a mess Labour is.
Chris Hipkins: 7/10
A good week. He holds the job and, given the hospital pass he got from Ardern, deserves a crack on his own terms.
His own terms: 2/10
First thing he does is raise tax talk. Read. The. Room.
Chloe Swarbrick: 1/10
Buffoon.
Willie Jackson: 1/10
Double buffoon.
The new Government: 3/10
What new Government?
Christchurch: 7/10
According to this week's survey it's the 10th most popular city in the world to move to.
