'The BBC has decided to set itself up as the official Opposition. Its news agenda is dominated by 'the cuts'.
Channel 4 News isn't much better, but it doesn't have the reach of the Beeb.
No bulletin is complete without a hand-wringing report from a sink estate somewhere in Britain, warning of the devastating consequences for the 'poorest in society' - even though the full details of the spending package aren't due until October and will almost certainly hit the middle classes hardest.
Reporters deliver their dispatches knee deep in bewildered, multi-ethnic nursery school children - the implication being that 'the cuts' are not only heartless, they're racist, too.
All pretence of objectivity has gone out of the window. Auntie is hell-bent on talking the economy down and blaming everything on 'the coalition cuts'.
BBC editors are determined to drive a wedge between the coalition partners. In a ludicrous interview this week, the Today programme's 'Prince Albert', Evan Davis, kept hounding Nick Clegg over his failure to impose 'progressive' policies on David Cameron.
Would he have given Clegg such a hard time if the Lib Dems had got into bed with Labour in a coalition of the losers? What do you think?
It's a pity the BBC didn't devote even half as much energy to exposing Labour's culture of reckless waste and drunken-sailor extravagance, which has brought Britain to the brink of bankruptcy.
BBC hacks hate the fact that most voters are quite content with the performance of the coalition so far - something confirmed this week by a poll in The Guardian, of all places.
Someone should tell the BBC its beloved Labour Party lost. Get over it.'
I have news for you Mr Littlejohn, the BBC have long been the mouthpiece/attack dog of the Labour party and what they are doing now is little different from what they have been doing for years.
