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

Banks: 6/10\xa0

Coming to the party. In Britain this week we have seen tangible life hit the housing market after one cut by the Bank of England. Could it happen here?\xa0

\xa0

The Prime Minister: 7/10\xa0

For giving the councils a reality check. They stand out as almost the sole survivors of the Covid \u201csting 'em where it hurts\u201d brigade with their bizarre cost-plus-accounting view of life.\xa0

\xa0

Power: 1/10\xa0

This is a shambles. You've got the immediate problem and the long-term problem. Both are, and have been, avoidable. It looks third world.\xa0

\xa0

Kamala Harris: 8/10\xa0

The week of her life. Half a billion raised, the Obama's with the light show, and today is the acceptance of the nomination. And polls that show it's all on.\xa0

\xa0

Darleen Tana: 2/10\xa0

Everything that is wrong with representation at the highest level. If it's not councils wasting your money, it's tyre kickers wasting our time.\xa0

\xa0

The Warriors: 1/10\xa0

What might have been, what could have been, what should have been. Now we are left with the Bulldogs, a contest that means nothing, and a goodbye to a great bloke who deserves better.\xa0
