Mark the Week: The Chinese parade was spellbinding
from The Mike Hosking Breakfast Hosted by 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 Chinese parade: 8/10 Forget politics. As a “thing”, as a spectacle, as a “can you believe how in time those goose steppers are?”, it was spellbinding. Helen Clark and John Key and Dan Andrews and Bob Carr: 4/10 On balance, given what it was really about, I think it was a mistake. Trump's death: 2/10 A sad reminder of just how thick, gullible and worryingly naive some people are. And that’s before you get to the morons who thought Taylor had DM'ed Eden Park as a wedding venue. I am not making it up. Teachers: 7/10 Big increases in enrolments. Just wait until the unions get hold of them and kill the buzz. The Tamaki Makaurau by-election: 2/10 Is this the most pitiful display of disinterest in modern democracy? If you thought Port Waikato was bad, this thing looks like it will hit it out of the park. That’s if the park is open. LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW
