This is an unacceptable breach of journalistic objectivity - with potentially devastating consequences. In its coverage of Rishi Sunak's ascent to the premiership, the BBC declared that spending cuts - as well as tax rises - are inevitable. Both are political choices. If the government decided to increase taxes on the wealthy - as I set out here - then they could avoid spending cuts. If the BBC get away with this, they'll keep doing it - and soften up public opinion to protect the government from anger at unpopular cuts, because the electorate will decide they're inevitable.
Please complain to the BBC here making it clear you're complaining about Nick Eardley's comments at 1016 on the news channel "The economic backdrop has changedMr Sunak is going to have to agree to spending cuts, and to tax rises" which presented austerity as inevitable, rather than a political choice.
