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.
Visas: 7/10
One of the bright spots of the week. Two more visas and access to labour that solves problems. More please.
Recognising Palestine as a state: 3/10
Talk about angst for no result. Around and around we go.
Disney Cruises: 4/10
Can you blame them? You make this the most expensive place in the world to bring a ship – who needs to deal with that?
Mystery meat: 3/10
What idiot thought of that?
Ardern and her henchpeople: 0/10
I don't know what else there is to say when you have sunk that low. More fool us. I can only imagine what the 50% of voters who wanted a chunk of that arrogance in 2020 think now.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
