BBC anti-Conservative attacks - the fightback (part 2)

I blogged recently about how the Conservatives were fighting back against BBC Bias by "1. George Osborne took a swipe at James Naughtie answering one question about Gordon Brown with "well you know him better than I do."
2. Oliver Letwin swatted the usual 'lurch to the right' question from Martha Kearney on WATO with a sharp riposte that is was a piece of Labour propaganda.
3. And best of all at a fringe debate hosted by the BBC on whether Cameron was in touch with the grass roots a conservative woman turned the tables on Martha asking her why the BBC allowed Gordon to get away with 'British jobs for British workers' rhetoric and indeed got feted for it, but if a conservative had said it they would be torn limb from limb. Funnily enough she didn't reply."

Now I read a comment on Guido Fawkes' blog that I think is a work of genius for when being interviewed by James "If we win the election" Naughtie - "...Tories on Today being interviewed by him should stop referring to "Labour" and start referring to "Your party, Jim." He makes no pretence of being impartial, so why should they have to pretend he's impartial?" Go on, who amongst the Shadow Cabinet is going to be the first to try it?
