"Brown critic 'ends hostilities' - One of Gordon Brown's leading critics, backbench MP George Howarth, says his campaign for a Labour leadership contest is over"This gives the BBC a chance to have as subsidiary articles:
"Who's who in new cabinet,The second of these articles is a report of Gordon Brown's speech to the Labour Conference some weeks back and the third is from just prior to the same conference. Presumably there will be some positive coverage of David Cameron's conference speech (a week later) still on the site, we will see...
No time for a novice, says Brown and PM defiant over leadership talk"
The next two stories are:
"UK Chancellor Alistair Darling EU finance chiefs in crisis talks - EU finance ministers are set to discuss increasing the guarantees for bank savings accounts in global crisis talks."One Labour government story and one minor Lib Dem story.
and
"Nick Clegg Lib Dem EU rebels win back jobs - Three Lib Dem MPs who quit the front bench over the EU referendum have won back jobs in a minor reshuffle."
Next comes the "Video and Audio news"
The voter panel story is a David Cameron is not that popular story, the Boris story is "fluff", the Mandleson story is worth having on the site and the last story is of the "Cameron has no policies, look even he supports labour" type.
"Voter panel Cameron speech: Voter panel reaction
Boris bashes 'cyborg' Arnie
Peter Mandelson The comeback kid?: Mandelson's moments
Cameron 'will work with the government'"
The "FEATURES, VIEWS, ANALYSIS" section has three Labour related stories:
"Tony Blair and Andrew Adonis End of an era - Mike Baker's take on the moving of Lord AdonisThe last being "fluff"
BBC political editor Nick Robinson Nick Robinson - 42 days is dead - defeat by three figure margin?
Andy Burnham (courtesy of Steve Baker) Northern soul - The music minister on his heroes and his plans"
So we move on to the "MORE FROM POLITICS" section (my comments after the - in each case):
"Kidney op Mandelson back at work - Labour
MPs' concerns at Diploma options - General
Academy fears on Adonis reshuffle - Labour/General
PM 'warned not to force 42 days' - Labour/General
Lower drink-drive limit rejected - General
Sex laws are 'unfair to teachers' - General
No job for Cruddas in reshuffle - Labour

'No precedent set' over Blair row - Labour
Brown continues cabinet reshuffle - Labour

How about the "OTHER TOP STORIES" - same basis:

By-elections 'happen too quickly' - General with a Labour reason
UK 'needs tougher climate target' - General
Markets need morals, says Brown - Labour
Glenrothes by-election date set - Labour

Equality of coverage? Lack of bias? Denying the Conservatives the oxygen of publicity?

I understand what your saying. However, the Labour party is in Government. They will generate more stories and get more coverage than the opposition simply there stories have more qudos. Brown making a law or a speech is more signficant than Cameron at a press talk for example. This has been the case for the Conservatives when they were in power.
