About this listen

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.

Education: 8/10

The maths trial results this week were a tangible example of the simple truth that if you concentrate on something and work hard, you will win.

The All Blacks: 6/10

They did better than the critics seem to suggest. Rugby has changed but the attitude on expectation and winning hasn’t. This isn't 1986.

Regional councils: 8/10

Bold call, good call. We will be better off for the call.

Ginny Andersen and steak: 6/10

Who had her down as a surreptitious food stealer?

Rachel Reeves: 2/10

Have a look at her work on taxes and ask yourself how far-removed Barbara Edmonds is - or isn't.

Surrender by Thursday: 4/10

Wasn't that yet another harebrained thought bubble by a bloke who looks increasingly unhinged, or tired, or old, or mad. Or possibly all of those things.
