This is selective reporting at its most shameless.  It’s oh so easy to single out one of this country’s finest newspapers as an example of sympathetic reporting of issues affecting some of the most vulnerable of our citizens.  Shame on you!  So in the interests of fairness, balance and fearless journalism I draw your attention to the following as a right of reply from one of our noblest and bravest institutions.

Nah - The hard core tories want Cameron out as they think he is being reined in too much by Clegg. He refuses to fully privatise the NHS, scrap minimum wage or abolish the 50p rate. Hence the undermining articles we are starting to see.
