Marama Davidson: 3/10

"No bills, three cabinet papers, eight press releases and all that chocolate. What a bench mark..."

\xa0

The Cost of Living payment cock up: 3/10

"If you're going to roll out a haphazard idea, don\u2019t do it in three parts. It's three times the pain."

\xa0

The Auditor General: 7/10

"That letter about the cost of living payments was grim reading, it was embarrassing and it showed an abdication of fiscal responsibility."

\xa0

Kids working: 7/10

"A simple, sensible and entirely workable solution to an ongoing crisis. No, it's not for all jobs, but work is good for a huge variety of reasons.

It looks like a win-win to me."

\xa0

Hamilton buses: 3/10

"Patronage is down 40 percent. Why don\u2019t they get that when there are no buses and there are no drivers, there is no point in trying to convince us things that aren't there are worth ditching your car for?"

\xa0

Meghan Markle: 1/10

"What's worse; the delusion, the bewilderment, the narcissism or the outright lies? Have you ever seen a person so puffed up, spin so hopelessly out of control?"

\xa0

Ram raids, gun crime and the answers: 3/10

Another week of despair and the stats don't lie. The Minister won't visit a victim and the paper work for a bollard drowns you.
