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.
James Shaw: 6/10
Likeable bloke and will find life outside immeasurably more fun.
Chlöe Swarbrick: 6/10
The obvious replacement choice I would have thought. Good luck to her, but it doesn’t advance the cause if you like the green bit of the Green Party.
Heat alerts: 3/10
When did we decide 27 degrees needed a heat alert, and who decided that?
Wellington Water: 1/10
It's not this council's fault, but it is multiple council's fault and is beyond a joke now. Perhaps it's a lesson in paying attention to local body politics and who we vote for?
Shane Jones: 6/10
My politician of the week for having the gonads and the experience to be able to stand up to some of this race-based nonsense and give it right back.
The return to work: 7:10
I have no time for those mad articles about how to cope, the New Year blues etc. If you don't like what you do, then fix it. Life is short.
