    Violets are blue
    Cameron's a lovely person
    And Osborne is too
    And so is Gove

    And that's the official view of The BBC.

    Radio 4, Huw Edwards, (or at least what he's given to read).

    But Radio 4 especially, they like to go for it.

    Aren't they just challenging the incumbent Government and their policies? Seem to remember that's what the BBC has always done, whoever's in office. If you're a regular Today listener, you'll obviously have heard Labour's plans to curb the energy companies, if they win the next election, get a right pillocking on air. I look to the BBC to challenge Government and the opposition parties, to scrutinise and hold a spotlight over their policies - seems to me that's what they do.

    I've no problem at all with them being challenged, I just sense a definite change of tone when talking to Osborne as opposed to Ed Balls for example. FWIW both deserve a smack, but I'd expect a broadcaster to be as rigorous with both.

    Evan Davis, Sarah Montague are the main culprits. Eddie Mair seems to be swallowing his own hype, and is equally sneering with either side of the political spectrum.

    Just as I see/hear it.

    I can't understand peoples not liking Miliband......

    He's not a charismatic and charming bloke like tony Blair was but from what I've heard him say he seems to be on the side of the working man and stopping big companies who supply our energy ripping us off. The way I see it can he be any worse than this shower we never voted in?
