Mark the Week: Ginny Andersen's police numbers were the bust of the week

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. 

 

Ginny Andersen's Police Numbers: 2/10 

Bust of the week. Numbers don't lie, Ginny. Was it careless? Was it Machiavellian? Or was it just lazy? 

 

The Police: 8/10 

When you arrest every single Comanchero, now that is policing power. 

 

The Greens: 2/10 

What a s***show. Darleen Tana takes them to court, so they cancel a meeting. God help us if they ever end up actually having to make a decision about anything important. 

 

Boeing: 2/10 

Making two people go to space for a week and then leaving them there till next year. Great form. 

 

Labour and Tax: 2/10 

If that really is their plan for 2026, we can probably reliably place our bets now. 

 

Kirstie Allsopp: 8/10. 

My hero of the week, reminding us trust is good. Being old-fashioned isn't to be sniffed at and standing your ground is to be admired. 

 

Shaun Johnson: 8/10 

Weird night, given the rain, the loss, and the season. But the crowd showed up and there was no shortage of love and admiration.
