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. 

 

GDP: 7/10 

Or should that be 0.7? It’s a bigger number than they thought and an indication that we have finally turned the corner. 

 

The Covid loan deadline: 3/10 

A sad, sad, sad reminder of why the 0.7% in GDP has taken so long to get here. Close to $1 billion owed and what do you reckon the chances of it all coming back are? 

 

Whangarei and their fluoride meeting: 2/10 

Read the Spinoff blow by blow account. It's gold, unless you live there and pay for it. Then it's farcical. 

 

The wars: 3/10 

Dreadful week. The Trump call to Putin was a joke and the ceasefire fell to bits. 

 

Ted Lasso: 8/10 

Another series when they said there wasn’t another series. 

 

F1: 7/10 

New Zealand ratings show half a million of us watched. That would make it the most watched programme of the week, or close to it.
