Show Notes
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 election: 7/10
A change of Government, reasonably clean result and an immediate lift in mood.
National: 8/10
Better result than most thought, a leader proved better than most thought, new MP's, a lot to play for and high hopes of at least two terms.
Labour: 3/10
Worse than they believed and that could be part of the problem. Got smashed in Auckland and deserved every bit of it. Now there's a lot of people without work, a leader who doesn’t seem to want to stay and no obvious successor. There's a long time in the wilderness coming.
Damien O'Connor: 4/10
Telling people to f*** off sort of summed up the mindset.
Tamatha Paul: 4/10
Not coming on a show like this is their loss, not ours.
Andrew Little: 6/10
First of those to walk but he won't be the last. But he's a good bloke with a decent disposition and a pretty solid contribution. He will be remembered well on the Coast and rightly so.
The All Blacks: 9/10
As good as rugby gets and another example of a team that was underestimated.
