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 India FTA: 8/10 

Got there at last. Todd McClay is signing and Labour's on board. How hard did it ever have to be? 

Labour and the FTA: 3/10 

You knew they would blink. But it was either pathetic games or an inability to make a decision, both of which should give you pause for thought this election. 

NZ First and the FTA: 2/10 

"Butter chicken tsunami" is low rent. It's base level muck. We deserve better but that’s what you get, and you get it every three years, and some people never learn. 

Christopher Luxon: 8/10 

Thomas Coughlan called it well. It was a "baller move" and it paid off. 

The Christchurch stadium: 9/10 

A facility that will be used in anger this weekend and a representation of a city that knows what success looks like.
