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.

David Seymour.

10/10.

"As big a week as you can ever get in politics, short of winning an election.

The End of Life Choice Bill is a triumph in determination, dedication, and hard work."

Sustainable NZ.

6/10.

"Because just by launching they offer choice.

And choice in a failed system where there is less and less choice is a good thing."

Winston Peters and his court case.

2/10.

"So it wasn’t Anne Tolley or Paula Bennett who leaked his overpayments, but it might be a whole department.

What a waste of time, energy, and money.

Winston Peters and his social media comments.

6/10.

"His comments are right.

It's out of line, out of control, and no one is doing anything about it.

And yet we obsess about mental health."

The Government's media merger plans.

3/10.

"If it's true and TVNZ and RNZ are to become one, believe me, having worked in both, you couldn’t be concocting a bigger balls up if you set out to concoct a balls up."

Queenstown.

8/10.

"Voted this week one of the most beautiful places on Earth by travel writers.

And the only place in New Zealand to make the list."

Singles' Day.

7/10.

"It's a piece of marketing genius.

I found it ever so slightly tacky, it was a telethon of commercialism.

But you can't argue with the numbers."
