The BBC and Gordon Brown

The BBC are verbally felating Gordon Brown on a regular basis, something that irritates me hugely as it does many others. I will be writing about this soon, but in the meantime here is a comment from Charley on the Biased-BBC blog which I think makes some very good points, thanks Charley.

"Charley:
The most irritating thing is the "Clean Slate" the BBC seem to have given Brown. He was a very powerful(arguably over-powerful) No. 2 during the Blair era and wielded enormous influence in every area, from the Iraq War to Social Policy. Without his support, nothing the Government did would have happened. All the volte-faces now being performed, from withdrawing troops from Basra to blocking super-casinos seem extremely cynical in light of this. If he found the policies so reprehensible why didn't he resign, as Michael Heseltine, Geoffrey Howe, Robin Cook (to name just a few major players) did? Was it self interest, knowing a leadership bid from the backbenches would be far more difficult? And why aren't the BBC asking these questions, instead of their current lickspittle approach?

Do you think the BBC will ever raise these questions? Or might that be quite tricky with their collective mouths so full with Gordon Brown's
metaphorical cock?
