And here, a matter of hours later, is how the BBC covers (creates really) a negative Brexit story

So, having buried the 'Global Leader in Free Trade' vision from Theresa May yesterday, (here) at the lowest possible place on its website, this is how the BBC is covering ('promoting' would be a more accurate term) a slightly less positive angle on Brexit this morning- a manufactured negative angle based on her saying - 'It might not all be plain sailing'.

In an interview with Marr she said: 'We have had some good figures and better figures than some had predicted would be the case. I'm not going to pretend that it's all going to be plain sailing.

"I think we must be prepared for the fact that there may be some difficult times ahead. But what I am is optimistic." 

So the BBC goes big on the possible - not certain by any means - negative angle.

Not hidden away at the very bottom of the 'News page' this time, but featured prominently, not once but twice on the top of the BBC's Homepage - the landing page for all visitors to the site. Top story and then repeated immediately below just in case you missed it.

Then of course absolute top of the 'News' page. And notice the headline says 'will bring difficult times', when what she actually said was: 'there may be some difficult times ahead'.

But the BBC is so determined to pick up on any possible negative of Brexit that it cannot help itself shouting - and falsifying - this piece from the rooftops.

It needs to be reformed. By force of public feeling. And soon. This crap is now getting so blatant that it's beyond a joke.

One thing is for absolute certain. It will be a glorious day when this out-of-control, biased, anti British corporation is either disbanded and closed or forced back to operating on the basis that it did when it obeyed the terms of its charter for impartiality; when it had credibility and was, therefore, one of the best things that Britain had ever given to the world. It is so far from that scenario now it's laughable.

It needs serious and urgent reform: And while 'Whippingdale' was just the latest in a long line of inept, spineless 'Media, Culture & Sport' Ministers to be too scared to address this urgent issue of the BBC, which directly affects the UK's very credibility & standing in the world, I think it's only a matter of time before the real, decent people of this country wake up and take action themselves. Probably via mass non-payment of the licence fee. We'll see - I'm not advocating that people break the law, but I think it's coming because reform is desperately needed and not being delivered. Tony Hall and his cronies are smugly laughing at and ignoring the people to whom he should be listening and reporting - the licence-fee-paying BBC audience.

Neither he nor very many (if any) of the current 'Guardianista' managers, executives or producers at the BBC will be coming along for the ride when this process gets under way.

Thanks for reading.

Update (7.55 am) - maybe someone reads this stuff after all? The BBC has now 'updated' its story to read 'May bring difficult times' as opposed to 'Will'. Doesn't change the 'job' they've done on promoting the negative whilst burying the positive.
