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.
July 1st: 7/10
A lot of cool stuff started, including higher speed limits on roads where higher speed limits make sense and increase efficiency.
Helipads: 8/10
Amazing for so many reasons; well-known rich people, a ridiculous number of submissions, a massive waste of energy and, finally, they won.
Offensive to girls: 3/10
The fuss over the Warehouse and the backpack is pathetic. It was a joke. It was light-hearted.
The All Blacks: 7/10
A new season, new hope, new excitement and an easy opener.
Wegovy: 7/10
That was a lot of publicity in the news for a product next to no one can afford.
School lunches: 7/10
Because with the new stats, the new meals, and the new feedback, that is a good example of a problem solved. Now, are the media going to give the same amount of coverage to the answer as they did to the problem?
