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.

 

ED numbers: 2/10

Scandal of the week. Numbers so implausible that no one believes them and yet Minister Verrall used them to spruik progress in waiting times.

 

The immigration scam: 2/10

When it came to nurses and midwives next to no one turned up. Proving, yet again, we missed the boat and Michael Wood is dangerous to the prosperity of this country.

 

Harry Styles: 8/10

He came and they loved him. It was good for feather boa sellers and he's proof life in a boy band doesn’t have to be as good as it gets.

 

Morgan Wallen: 9/10

If Harry ain’t your thing Morgan is. And he's proof that not winning The Voice means nothing when you're packing stadia.

 

Ruth Dyson: 2/10

Of the three who made a mess of it she wins. Because to be so lazy you don’t even read what you're supposed to read and then having not read it, still be defiant about it, suggests you probably shouldn't have been given any level of responsibility in the first place.

 

Tesla: 4/10

When they're looking to investigate your company because your steering wheel could fall off, is that a sign the car might not be made all that well? And is that why they dropped the price? Is the steering wheel now optional?

 

The Kaitaki: 2/10

Is that one form of transport that’s even worse than a Tesla?

 

Breakers: 8/10

One game apiece - the dream is alive.

 

The Warriors: 8/10

We haven't lost this season - the dream is alive
