Wrapping the Week with Kate Hawkesby and Tim Wilson: Bets and kimchi sprinkles

It was a highly divisive speech from Benjamin Netanyahu as thousands protest his visit to the US. 

The Israeli Prime Minister is meeting Vice President Kamala Harris today. 

His talks to the US Congress yesterday were boycotted by dozens of senior lawmakers due to his role facilitating the war and humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. 

US Correspondent Mitch McCann told Mike Hosking the Republicans who showed up were largely supportive, with some calling it 'epic'. 

Whereas he says the Democrats were unhappy, with Nancy Pelosi calling it one of the worst speeches by a foreign dignitary invited to speak to Congress.

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.



Tech: 3/10 

For all that it's changed we have become hopelessly reliant on a thing we don’t get and can't cope with when it doesn’t work right.



The All Blacks: 6/10

We won and we saw some new talent. Whether it swept America is another issue.



The NBA: 9/10 

Amazon won over Warner Brothers in a battle worth billions. Now that’s how you run sport.



Joe Biden: 3/10

For all the nice words it ends in a sort of pathetic whimper.



Donald Trump: 5/10 

Took a lot of the good will out of Butler and blew it up by being so uncool with a movie length rant.



Kamala Harris: 7/10

Winner for the week. Raised the money, looked energetic and stitched up the delegates, but didn’t move the polls though and that is your worry.



The Olympic medal chances: 2/10 

They predict 14 medals. Isn't that a worry?

Mark the Week: Kamala Harris is the winner for the week

New Zealand's opposing proposals for infant formula label changes while Australia is adopting them. 

Dairy industry groups raised concern it could impact exports of the product. 

Ministers from both countries met to discuss the proposal written by the collective Food Standards Authority.

Food Safety Minister Andrew Hoggard sought a review but failed. 

He told Mike Hosking he didn't expect he'd be successful.

Hoggard said that asking for a review is unusual, and is hardly ever agreed to, but he decided to fight the good fight anyway.
