Did you see the word "cut" in both the main title and the 1st line in the body of the article??

I did but both the headline and body refer to Osborne making savings. He is not making savings he is making cuts in already agreed budgets.

It's a question of perspective. A reduction in spending is a saving to the person doing the spending, but a cut to the person receiving it. I don't think the wording is anything to get upset over.

Considering the article was full of the SNPs favourite rhetoric and Gideon's announcement tacked on the end I would go further and suggest this is a perfect piece of BBC reporting to counter the somewhat over excited supposition of determined and ongoing BBC bias..
