Mark the Week: Are we debated out?

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 campaign: 6/10 

Was this the week that we got debated out? One too many or two too many? And can you believe there are at least two more still to come? 

Gangs: 1/10 

May turn out to be, if not a defining moment, certainly a moment some could look back on with regret. New Zealanders hate gangs and their criminal violence. Labour needed it like a hole in the head. 

Diesel: 2/10 

As in the deal between Trump and Putin. It's about 10 days worth of domestic demand in America. Nothing Trump touches right now looks anything close to slick. 

The All Blacks: 9/10 

As fast, fiery, and complete a performance as you would ever be lucky enough to see. 

Tourists: 8/10 

Stats this week confirm we are officially back from Covid. Way too slow to get there, but the growth is real and it's on.
