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.
 
Singapore's Approach to Covid: 8/10
"Living with Covid, no quarantine, no daily numbers, they can tame it, and not eliminate it.
They say it's sort of like flu.
Welcome to the real world."
 
Britain's Approach to Covid: 7/10
"As July 19 gets closer, no compulsory QR scanning and no isolation if you’ve been jabbed.
Welcome to the real world."
 
New Zealand's Approach to Covid: 3/10
"Looking at compulsory QR scanning, no changes for the vaccinated, no vaccine, and still 122nd in the world."
 
The 2022 ASB Classic Cancelled: 2/10
"Another reminder that being a hermit kingdom comes at a very high price.
As Wimbledon begins in front of crowds, we cancel our event for the second year in a row."
 
Chris Finlayson's Criticism of National: 6/10
"A bit off-piste bagging your old workplace.
But he did have a point."
 
The Wellington Kayakers: 8/10
"God bless the adventurer.
And long may they blow wind up the skirts of the scared and frightened."
 
Matt Hancock's Affair and Resignation: 0/10
"Dick of the week."
 
All Blacks: 7/10
"First game of the season.
Not exactly a blockbuster opener, but local, and with the promise of an almost normal season."
 
Clarkson's Farm: 9/10
"A highlight of the week,
An ode and love letter to the farmer told, as always, brilliantly.
In a world of scant good telly, watch it. It's uplifting."
