Mark the Week: A ceasefire is a reason for hope

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 

A ceasefire is reason for hope and not a lot of that has been floating about the place recently. 

 

The UK election petition: 4/10 

Small clue, they already had one of those. It's called an election. 

 

Capital Gains Tax: 6/10 

The debate and the vote this weekend. If Labour wants to enhance their chances of two, if not three, terms in Opposition, yes is the way to vote. 

 

The Covid Inquiry: 4/10 

Because the coverage of what I would argue is as big a deal as anything this year, was scant to say the least. 

 

The coalition's first year: 7/10 

Some good progress, some good co-operation and not a lot of fall out. But it's lacking the real bite that is needed to turn this shambles around. They must try harder. 

 

TJ Perenara: 4/10 

We didn't talk about the game or the tour and that is why it's a problem.
