What Change?

David Cameron often criticised Labour for leaking major policies to the press before announcing them to Parliament first. Osborne is due to announce the long-awaited Comprehensive Spending Review to Parliament on Wednesday, so imagine my surprise, when watching BBC news today after a day's campaigning, at seeing these headlines:
The BBC understands that the health budget is safe from cuts.
And:
The BBC understands that the overseas development budget is untouched.
And:
The BBC learns that the schools budget is safe from cuts.
And:
The BBC learns that the defence budget will be reduced by 8% down from original the 10% treasury proposals after 'hero' Cameron intervenes.
Clearly Cameron will be incandescent with rage at the BBC's persistent and expectational investigative journalism and will announce an inquiry asap.
