The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Full Show Podcast: 10 July 2024

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 Olympics: 5/10

Is it just me? I'm not feeling it. It could be the timezone or it could be the medal count, but I am hoping week two supplies a bit more success and a bit more drama.



The Greens: 2/10

Months of procrastination, only to culminate in more procrastination with yet another letter. Imagine if they had to actually make a decision.



The Warriors: 8/10

Yes they won and they are still in the hunt, but selling out your entire season and being the first and only NRL club ever to do so tells you about support, fandom and love.



Andrew Coster: 5/10

Read the room and got the memo.



Māori wards law: 8/10

Simeon Brown is the minister who drove it through. He got it in one. A good day for democracy.



Kamala Harris: 7/10

Since the ascendency she doesn't seem to have done a thing wrong. Money is flowing and the polls are moving.

Mark the Week: The Warriors selling out tells you about support, fandom and love

Many new builds are opting for hardwood or synthetic carpets, ignoring the homegrown options.

Bremworth launched a $2 million marketing campaign this week, aiming to remind Kiwis of the high-quality woollen options we have in this country.

CEO Greg Smith told Mike Hosking that they’ve seen in their research that both hardwood and wool considerations are at a four year high, which may indicate that people are moving towards more natural options.

He said that they need to make sure people are aware of the natural performance benefits of New Zealand wool.

Greg Smith: Bremworth CEO on their marketing campaign for NZ wool carpet

We end the week with a bit of good health news.

We have been weighed down this week with the scrap over 14 layers of management, no doctors in Dargaville at certain times of the day, four new CEOs in four regional operations that will allegedly sort the mess out, former board members snapping back at criticism from the Prime Minister, and a myopic media trying their best to out Shane Reti on what may or may not be some sort of semi-scandal around his interpretation of the need to sack boards.

But there is good news. It's the removal, or the cancellation, of the ethnic diversity equity adjustor.

You'll remember it. It was a massive scrap under the last Government, who tried desperately to explain that using race was a good way to work out who to put at the front of the non-urgent surgery line.

Five indicators were used, things like age and location. But race was the one that got most of us upset, given we thought we lived in a fair and open country where race was not an issue when it comes to publicly funded services.

It was predicated on the idea that Māori are not well served by health, and in some respects that is true. But poor, old Chris Hipkins got himself woefully tied up in knots over an example of a person who lived rurally, many of them Māori, and how because you were rural you didn’t have the same access to doctors as you would in a city, which is true.

But then neither do you if you live rurally but aren't Māori. That particular piece of logic seemed to elude him.

When faced with the example of the two people with the same conditions and the same need fronting, except one was Māori and one wasn’t, why was it fair that race then made the difference? They couldn’t quite offer an explanation that made sense.

Ironically, some in the health service who reviewed it defended it. But people also seem to be able to defend Māori seats, Māori wards, Māori funding and services and entitlements that are purely race-based.

No wonder they are so angsty about David Seymour's Treaty bill. When the scales are tipped that far your way an injection of balance and fairness and open democracy must be a bit worrying.

So in health the race equity adjustor is going. A reason, if not to celebrate, at least to be relieved about.
