Mark the Week: The Aitken case was a storm in a bone china, Northern Club teacup

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.     The war: 6/10  Mark my words, this is closer to the end than many think. Round two of talks, a squeeze on the Strait – the Iranians are about to capitulate.      Moana Pasifika: 4/10  In a competition already lacking sparkle, this can't have helped. And also, perhaps a lesson in starting something for the right reasons, not ideological ones.      The Crusaders' horses: 3/10  That's a 30-year legacy we will miss.      Ema Aitken: 7/10  Pleased she wasn’t booted, but nor should she have been. What a storm in a bone china, Northern Club teacup.      The BSA: 7/10  Can't wait to see the back of them. Good luck and good night.      LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
