All Claas!

Written by  The Hound
All Claas!

OPINION: Your canine crusader - like many in the sector probably would have - raised an eyebrow when he heard the news that UK Tory Party MP Neil Parish was recently forced to resign after he "accidentally" opened an X-rated video while looking at machinery online.

Parish quit last month after admitting he twice watched he twice watched adult clips in the House of Commons.

However, the farmer claimed he had only viewed the porn by accident because he had been looking for "tractors" online and had got "into another website with a sort of a very similar name".

According to reports from his friends, the former MP was actually looking for Dominator combine harvesters when the search resulted in that hardcore filth.

Oh yeah? The Hound reckons if that is the case then quite a few machinery buffs in rural NZ could find themselves in trouble if they go online looking for a new harvester or tractor!

Group hug!

OPINION: Forest & Bird and farmers don't often find themselves on the same side of an issue, with F&G's litigious tendencies often pitting the two groups against each other.

Risky business

OPINION: In the same way that even a stopped clock is right twice a day, economists sometimes get it right.
