Mark the Week: Polls are the joke 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. 

 

David Seymour: 7/10 

In Britain, debating as we speak. But last weekend he ascended to Deputy Prime Minister and gave an excellent speech about what our country can be. It was uplifting, and uplifting is good. 

 

Chris Bishop: 7/10 

Was at the music awards and expressed an opinion. People of the left didn’t appear to like opinions. That's not as uplifting. 

 

Mitch Barnett: 3/10 

Professionals get injured, but a season ender is a cruel blow, especially given this is our year. 

 

The Waiuku raised crossing: 2/10 

Because it's bollocks, but at least it's on hold. 

 

Polls: 1/10 

Joke of the week. Buy a dartboard and pretend it means something. 

 

Six million: 7/10 

Our population prediction by 2040. I like more people because more people brings growth. I've always thought we are way too small.
