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. Consumers: 7/10 Confidence at a 6-month high. School lunches: 3/10 This is the stupidest story of the week. Four days it lasted – we've become myopic. We fixate on triviality. It’s got a small village idiot vibe to it, don’t you reckon? Social media ban: 6/10 Mainly for effort, because it’s not real, it’s not practical – it’s got idealism all over it. Pete Hegseth: 3/10 Between the narco boats and the Signal report, what odds are you running that he doesn’t make Christmas? Rates caps: 7/10 Move of the week from the central government. If local government just stopped whining for a moment and asked themselves who the architects of the mess actually are and why, they might not have as much to moan about.
