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. 

 

Julie-Anne Genter: 0/10 

She's unhinged. 

 

James Shaw: 7/10 

Badly let down by a narcissist who stole the headlines by being unhinged. 

 

Pay rises: 5/10 

When it comes to MPs and money you can't win. Some are brilliant and some are liabilities, but the pay structure doesn’t take that into account, hence you have what you have. 

 

Martin Freeman: 7/10 

Truth to power. He's no longer a vegetarian after he discovered the meat alternatives weren't actually that flash for you, reminding us that when you read the label it's often a lot different to the marketing. 

 

Fast track: 7/10 

It's depressing to watch the people who whine about actually getting on with stuff. 

 

Premium economy: 7/10 

A 19% increase in sales at the front of the plane. What cost of living crisis? 

 

Te Huia: 2/10 

$500 a seat subsidisation. It's the premium economy of public transport.
