Mark the Week: What is it with this country and ships?

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.    Ships: 1/10  Two in a week with issues, one admittedly more serious than the other. What is it with this country and ships?    Nobel Prizes: 8/10  They get scant coverage in a world that has never been more desperate for brilliance and individuality and the celebration of the human spirit and achievement.    Home ownership: 8/10  Surely the hero number out of the census - more of us own a home. That's not what the rhetoric will tell you.    Keir Starmer: 3/10  Have you ever seen a politician take a victory the size of his and cock it up quite so quickly?    Jimmy Spithill: 7/10  Good guy, great athlete and a very big contributor to the America's Cup. He's quite possibly leaving a bit too soon.    School holidays: 6/10  They're almost over. Well done all grandparents who did the heavy lifting of grandkids, who on day one seemed cute as but by day seven were ungrateful little snots.    LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
