Mark the Week: Ginny Andersen's police numbers were the bust of the week

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. 

 

Ginny Andersen's Police Numbers: 2/10 

Bust of the week. Numbers don't lie, Ginny. Was it careless? Was it Machiavellian? Or was it just lazy? 

 

The Police: 8/10 

When you arrest every single Comanchero, now that is policing power. 

 

The Greens: 2/10 

What a s***show. Darleen Tana takes them to court, so they cancel a meeting. God help us if they ever end up actually having to make a decision about anything important. 

 

Boeing: 2/10 

Making two people go to space for a week and then leaving them there till next year. Great form. 

 

Labour and Tax: 2/10 

If that really is their plan for 2026, we can probably reliably place our bets now. 

 

Kirstie Allsopp: 8/10. 

My hero of the week, reminding us trust is good. Being old-fashioned isn't to be sniffed at and standing your ground is to be admired. 

 

Shaun Johnson: 8/10 

Weird night, given the rain, the loss, and the season. But the crowd showed up and there was no shortage of love and admiration.

be sniffed at, and standing your ground is to be admired.
Mining seven the poll out this week told the story
that the activists in the media would suggest, well, it's

b and zed and houses six seven percent is very
solid growth and represents an end to the economic winter
and the side of normality. I would have thought labor

twenty twenty six, we can probably reliably place our bets

how much of COVID generally do you have regrets about? Now?
Are the COVID inquiry part two? Seven? We should not need,
of course a part two. But part one is such
a scam and a stitch up, Ginny Anderson two. I
don't agree with your numbers, Bust of the week. Numbers

Now that is policing power three Debate of the week.
Hopefully we've finally waken up to the following of ideology,
the carnage of talkover doing, and the reality of basically
the role of basics and what sort of role they
play in all our lives. The Greens too, what a

shit show. Tana takes them to court so they cancel
a meeting. God help us if they ever end up
actually having to make a decision about anything important or

by being worth a trillion dollars as they now are.
Through good old fashioned common sense, you remind us all

on puffery. In what might be And that's the week
