Mark the Week: The drop in teacher numbers is hardly a surprise

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.     Meteorological paranoia: 2/10   Between the MetService and the media, you would have thought Noah and his large ship were going to be needed, and yet...    Teachers: 6/10  God bless them, but it’s hardly a surprise when you see a drop in numbers, is it? Would you be a teacher?    Easter rules: 3/10   I'm not sure what’s worse, the shambles they’ve become, or the annual tedious debate about changing them… even though we never change them.    Hegseth: 4/10  Looks increasingly like a doofus, and I’m not sure he wasn’t a doofus to start with.    Canada: 7/10   Best election going right now – early voting at records, massive swing in the polls… could be one to remember.    Exports: 8/10  Good news story of the week. In March, this country hit it out of the park – that’s what we need more of.    LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
