Mark the Week: Some good old fashioned common sense

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. 

 

The Warriors: 8/10 

Three on the bounce and looking better by the week. Melbourne at home this week. Come on! This is our year! 

 

Farmers and the ETS: 8/10 

Good, old fashion common sense. 

 

Oil and gas: 7/10 

Some more good, old fashioned common sense. Yes, we want to help the climate, but there's no point if the lights don’t work. 

 

Banks: 6/10 

This is fertile ground and maybe the pollies go where the Commerce Commission won't, or hasn’t. As it stands in the PR battle, I'm not sure the banks are currently on the right side of this. 

 

Fieldays: 8/10 

A reminder of what makes this country tick. 

 

Tourism: 4/10 

Someone high up needs to wake up to this. 73% of where we were five years ago is a straight up and down failure and we need to ask why. 

 

120kmh: 7/10 

The Government wants to hear from us on increasing the speed limit. I say yyyyeeeeaaaah baby!

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So I'm now to make the weak little piece of
us and current affairs that's more popular than a powerball split.
Six Ways are the Warriors eight the A three on
the bounce looking for better this week Melbourne at Home
cam on this is e you vote this week? Six
a reality check for the green obsessives when the young
people are voting for the other guys. If that ain't
a wake up call, I don't know what is. Farmers

(00:21):
in the ets eight fashioned common sense, oil and gas
seven some more good old fashioned common sense. Yes we
want to help the climb, but of course we do.
But there's no point of the lightstone work petrol four
see the ComCom weighing and yet again sadly just alerts
you to the reality that market studies don't work. If
they did, you wouldn't hear from the ComCom. Banks six

(00:43):
This is fertile ground and maybe the politicians go where
the ComCom won't or hasn't. And as it stands in
the pr battle, I'm not sure the banks are currently
on the right side of this field. Days eight remind
them of what makes this country tech are the christ
you chain p show six six than nothing and a
reminder of what makes this country tick? Migration two see

(01:06):
Ken's leaving. It's a rite of passage. I get that,
but this number is more than that. It's getting embarrassing.
Ram raids six down eighty percent. Not that you would
know that, given the media's treatment of the good news
was nothing like the media's treatment of the bad news.
Tourism four. Someone high up needs to wake up to this.
Seventy three percent of where we were five years ago

(01:26):
is a straight up and down failure. And we need
to ask why one hundred and twenty seven government wants
to hear from us on increasing the speed limit. I say, yeah,
baby Kiwi fruit eight, record hallbos six good haul, but
more of it going offshore because the quality is up
and that's good for exports rewards. Four. See these make

(01:48):
me uneasy. You can't find a bloke. There are no clues.
Eighty thousand bucks. People can't hit the phone fasted up.
What's that tell you about people in their motivations. That's
the week copies on the website. No one involved in
the production of this claim any accommodation allowance at all.
