Description

At the end of each week, Mike takes you through the big ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. The Queen: 9/10"Nowhere to be seen for weeks, not at the opening of Parliament, and then bang.Horse show, Jubilee event, got given a horse by the president of Azerbaijan."Looking sprightly well and happy, almost as though it was part of a plan." Finland and Sweden: 8/10"The irony of the invasion and what's its led to isn't missed by anyone" Australia: 7/10"A foregone conclusion has now become a race.Saturday night is a genuine 'we don't know what will happen' moment." The Climate Announcement: 4/10"Yet again it was waffle, yet again it was plans to make plans.You would think they would learn." Tauranga: 7/101.5 billion dollars for redevelopment of its downtown.Amazing what can actually happens when you put experts in to run places." The Parliamentary Protest Cost: 2/10"Millions and millions of dollars spent.Why? Because they refused to do to the job and get them out of the grounds on day two or three." Chloe and the Doco: 2/10"Has she changed the landscape to such an extent we have hundreds of thousands to trapse around after her to produce something only a handful of apologists will ever see?" Wages: 7/10"More money is always good.But stop go people on 46 grand after a 28% wage rise, while a dental technician with 3 years training gets the same, makes no sense"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
