Mark the Week: Good on Luxon for defending tax cuts
Listen now
Description
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 immigration statistics: 3/10  The record broken by Kiwis leaving this country is the number that should be chiseled on the Labour Government grave stone 2017-2023. "Here lies Labour. 52,500 couldn’t stand it any longer."    Charter schools: 7/10 Recognising that a union-based one-stop shop isn't for everyone.    The Waitangi Tribunal: 4/10  Why don’t they just write the one report? Just say "we hate national", "we hate everything they are doing", "everything they are doing is racist" and just hand a new copy out every time someone whinges?    The Luxon pre-Budget speech: 6/10  Defending tax cuts and good on him. The fact some have lost the idea that actually keeping the money you earn, shows you just how wayward and ill-disciplined we have become.    Biden and Trump: 7/10  Two debates. A better watch than Mike Tyson v Jake Paul I reckon.    Jerry Seinfeld: 9/10  Listen to what he actually said, not what the media focused on. There are lessons for life in there. He is brilliant.    LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
