Mark the Week: Winston Peters got exactly what he wanted

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Podcast készítő Newstalk ZB - Hétfők

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.    Common sense: 7/10  You can't beat a good dose of it - the Kainga Ora crackdown, part of a growing trend where a lot of ideological gobbledygook gets put right. And you can add the vape decisions to this week's offerings      The plug-in hybrid back down: 6/10  When you overreach you see it and fix it. That's almost as good as common sense.    Conspiracy theories: 2/10  The blight of the age. I can't work it out. Even when you saw the video at Windsor people still questioned it. Is it stupidity? It's wilful stupidity, mesmerising stupidity, mixed with a next level gormlessness.    Winston Peters: 7/10  He got exactly what he wanted. Surely even he must be surprised that a trick that old still works.    The recession: 2/10  The second one now. That’s called a double dip recession and brought to you by the same people that oversaw the aforementioned crime stats.    The French: 7/10  First in the world to pass laws around fast fashion. I doubt they will work but the intent deserves credit.    Ryan Fox: 8/10  Tournaments, prize money and trophies come and go. But a hole in one on the greatest hole in golf is forever.    LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
