Mark the Week: The gang laws represent a turning of the tide

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. 

  

Basketball: 7/10 

The most popular school sport in the country. Who doesn’t love a pick-up game and a lay-up? 

 

The gang laws: 7/10 

Because they represent a turning of the tide, a restoration of some common sense and some realisation of just how shabby this place had become. 

 

World War III: 3/10 

Let's keep our powder dry, shall we? A missile does not an escalation make. You might remember we are still waiting for Iran to respond in the other war and that was an age ago. 

 

Dairy: 9/10 

If we hit $10, that's a record. What a year, and what a time to have a year. 

 

Glastonbury: 8/10 

Sold out in 35 minutes, costs $700 and you got no idea who's on stage. 

 

Taylor Swift: 3/10 

With an education system like ours in the state it's in, is it really wise to spruik a Taylor Swift course? Is that really your calling card?

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Right time to mark the week. Little piece of news
and current events that the Ethics Committee are deadlocked on
releasing in New Zealand. Sect. Well with the bad news
to get another plane grounded, came the good news they
are looking to reconnect us to London. No bad thing,
end z one, Bring it back. Basketball seven, most popular
school sport in the country. Who doesn't love a pickup
and a layup? The Gang Laws seven because they represent

(00:23):
a turning of the tireder, restoration of some common sense
and some realization of just how shabby this place has become.
World War three three, let's keep our powder dry? Shall
we are missile as not an escalation make You might
remember we're still waiting for Iran to respond in the
other war, and that was ages ago. One thousand days too.
This will end in a salemate. Russia are hopeless at fighting,

(00:46):
the US is out of patients, Europe can't afford it.
There will not be another one thousand days Sweden, Finland
and Norway. Four is sending up Pamphlet's really a good
way to prepare for war? I mean, really, g twenty four.
Biden was there, which was pointless. Trump wasn't there. Nothing happened.
It reflects a planet in a malays and that's before
we get to COP twenty nine one. Even the Zealots

(01:06):
have gone quiet on that. Even fewer people have import
turned up and even less was done. Glastow eight sold
out in thirty five minutes, seven hundred bucks and you've
got no idea. Who's on stage our Economy six see
two bits of news A and Z who said the

until the year after next and in for metrics essay.

Right now it's all backwards. Our band aid four Yes,
Christmas four decades on a good idea embraced in a
better age is now an insult to Africa. Apparently, Taylor
Swift three, with an education system like ours in the
state it's in, is it really wise to spook as
they did this week a Taylor Swift course? Is that
really your calling card? Deiry nine hucks, that's a record.

What a year and what a time to have a year.
North and South Magazine four Media ain't dery clearly the
All Black seven it'll be a win this weekend and
a tour that I think overall you would be churlish
not to call a success. And that's the week copies
on the website and a new favorite of Chris Martin,
as it turns out after after Matt Heath smuggled a
copy into his back pocket when they were having a

(02:12):
little cuddle backstage last weekend. For more from the Mic
