The one hundred and fifty ninth weekly "No shit, Sherlock" award

This week's winner are the BBC for this Tweet from yesterday
Labour 'tax, borrow and spend' - "No shit, Sherlock"


Interestingly by this morning there was no reference to these lead-in words in the verbiage around the video, which now reads:
'Labour argues the economy needs a temporary stimulus to improve the chances of growth.

The Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury explained the party would also be tough on wasteful public spending.

Rachel Reeves said her party was "ready to complete the job of deficit reduction in the next Parliament".

Jo Coburn asked her to explain how the plans were different to government policy, while Conservative MP John Redwood suggested what the Chancellor might do for jobs and growth in next month's Budget.'
I wonder when the BBC made the changes and why?
