Mark the Week: Supermarkets have become the obsession of the campaign

from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

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.    Tax deductibility: 8/10  Most likely the best thing Labour will do this campaign. It's either desperation or the realisation of common sense. Either way we are better off for it.    India: 8/10  Most likely the most impactful thing this Government has done in its first term. It's not just an FTA, but one with the biggest growth engine in the world. We can't lose.    Supermarkets: 4/10  It's become the obsession of the campaign. Only ACT are left as the option if you see this for what it is, which is not a thing. If you think it’s a thing, the queue for your vote is now a long one.    Rugby: 4/10  It's quite a thing to double your earnings and still not make ends meet. And given yesterday, they don’t look the lot to tackle the hard stuff.    The Warriors: 6/10  The season was awesome, the playoffs were awful. Maybe next year.    LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
