OPINION: The Hound was flabbergasted at the over-the-top censoring actions of the National Fieldays lackeys at this year's event.

Rural ginger group Groundswell - who had paid big money for a stand to exhibit at this year's Fieldays - were stopped by organisers from selling its signature golf balls featuring the faces of the Prime Minister, Agriculture Minister, Climate Change Minister, and Environment Minister.

Apparently, Groundswell were narked on by Labour supporters.

The Fieldays organisers then - acting like a bunch of government toadies and stormtroopers - acquiesced to this complaint and forced Groundswell to stop selling the 'offending' golf balls.

However, the censure move backfired on Fieldays organisers and Labour party hacks with various news outlets, social media platforms, and even the 6pm news reporting on the over-the-top reaction.

Double standards

OPINION: Imagine if the Hound had called the Minister of Finance the 'c-word' and accused her of "girl math".

Debt monster

OPINION: It's good news that Finance Minister Nicola Willis has slashed $1.1 billion from new spending, citing "a seismic global economic event" - Donald Trump's trade tariffs - and unsustainable debt, but with the Government reportedly borrowing $500 million a week, interest costs now exceed the combined budgets of Police, Corrections, Justice and Defence.
