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.\xa0

\xa0

The Government: 7/10\xa0\xa0

Underway at last and a very solid start. A lot of intent, a lot of promises and a lot of energy. \xa0

\xa0

Parliament: 6/10\xa0

Underway at last, almost two months since voting day. Politics moves about as fast as justice. \xa0

\xa0

James Meager: 8/10\xa0

Universally seen as the star of the week with that speech. The trick now is to live up to the words.\xa0

\xa0

The Auditor General's election audit: 3/10\xa0

When you have to investigate counting you know we are not up to much. \xa0

\xa0

PISA results: 2/10\xa0

What a disgrace. What an abject, intergenerational failure and what a shocking way to deal with our kids. \xa0

\xa0

Singapore: 8/10\xa0

The good news is they have the answer and they are like us, except with their act together. So the model is right there. \xa0

\xa0

Tohu Harris: 8/10\xa0

Yes, Beaudy is good but Harris is the man. And with Harris you know it means next year is our year.\xa0

\xa0

Golf: 4/10\xa0

New balls that don\u2019t go as far. Talk about killing the fun. \xa0
