Every Friday morning, Mike Hosking takes you through the big ticket items of the week and lets you know what he makes of it all.

The Commerce Commission's fuel report.

6/10.

"Have they found a smoking gun? Are we being fleeced? Ask me in a year when the prices haven't really moved. ,

If new players arrive that’s no bad thing, but is petrol any different to insurance, building products, or supermarkets?

I don’t think so."

Cannabis Referendum.

0/10.

"42 joints is cool, if it wasn’t real it would be a joke. But given it is real it's still a joke.

The country is run by deluded, ideologically driven idiots. Listen to our Andrew Little interview and tell me I am wrong."

Israel Folau.

9/10.

"If it's eight million, if it's anything million, he's won.

And the battle for free speech, which is not to be confused with a specific contractual issue, is a far reaching one and could be one of the great debates of our time."

Trump at the NATO Summit.

6/10.

"Yes, he's a verbal bully, but you got to hand it to him. America has paid the world's bills, with NATO being a classic example.

But who else has held them to account the way he does?"

Lime being booted out of Auckland.

7/10.

"I'm sort of pleased. Lime played fast and loose, they had a lot noise, but not of responsibility about them. I hope the others are better.

But ask yourself, do these things really solve anything? Or are they just cheap fun when you can't be bothered walking with a massive ACC bill attached?"

David Warner.

8/10.

"The mental fortitude to come back from where he was, to do what he did is astonishing.

It's just a shame some want to see the punishment last forever."

Returning Christmas Gifts.

8/10.

"According to US research, most people will.

Makes you wonder whether you should bother at all in the first place."
