Next on the BBC... those wicked Tory cuts in full

Daily Mail
"This morning’s edition of You Couldn’t Make It Up comes courtesy of The Guardian, which reports that the Labour Party is unhappy about the BBC’s biased coverage of the ‘cuts’. That makes two of us. You can’t turn on the BBC without being force-fed lurid details of the apocalypse about to befall us because of the Coalition’s attempts to tackle the massive budget deficit bequeathed by the last government.If you believe everything you hear on the Beeb, by this time next year there won’t be a hospital left open in Britain, the schools will all have been boarded up and the streets will be overrun with old age pensioners begging for a crust after being evicted from their council day centres — probably at gunpoint...... But I doubt much attention has been paid to investigating the massive waste, non-jobs and vast salaries of senior council officers, or the huge increase in expenses and allowances which self-styled council ‘Cabinet’ members have awarded themselves lately.

The anti-cuts agenda is institutionalised at the BBC and infects the entire output, not just news and current affairs."
