The 7pm BBC Radio 4 news is a short bulletin, under two minutes to bridge the gap between 6:30pm comedy and The Archers. So this evenings bulletin was very oddly structured indeed. The lead item was the Mubarek resignation and the BBC started by reporting David Cameron's statement in brief, this was followed by a much longer piece of Ed Miliband reaction in person. The rest of the news bulletin then followed.
So why would the BBC choose to let us hear their master's voice rather than the Prime Minister's? Can you imagine the BBC two years ago playing David Cameron rather than Gordon Brown?
