Shows the pathetic inferiority complex of the BBC mindset, that to inflate their own egos they need to denigrate the Royals to show just how much more 'superior' they are. Never mind that this is the correspondent hired by the BBC to cover the royals and should appreciate that many people are happy to have them. The same people that pay the licence fee, and the salaries of these morons (BBC).
Can you recognise the 'type'?
And the previous one? 
Can you recognise the 'type'?
And the previous one? 'Get him off, please get him off!' Kirstie Allsopp blasts BBC's royal correspondent for comparing 'unelected' Queen to Chinese Premier
By Martin Robinson for MailOnline
TV star Kirstie Allsopp today accused the BBC's royal correspondent of 'loathing' the royal family after he compared the Queen with the Chinese President.
The Location, Location, Location presenter, 44, turned on Peter Hunt after he described how 'one party state' leader Xi Jinping was staying in 'the palace home of an unelected monarch' while in London.
Ms Allsopp said he had gone 'too far' and defended the role of the Queen before accusing Mr Hunt of also being 'down' on Prince William's plea that China must to abandon the 'immoral' ivory trade.
Tweet: The Location, Location, Location star demanded that Mr Hunt should be taken off the air
Accusation: Ms Allsopp claimed that Mr Hunt should be taken off the royal beat because he 'loathes' them
Describing the significance of the Chinese President's visit to the UK Mr Hunt had said on BBC Radio 4's Today programme: 'The President of a single party state which shed its imperial past more than a century has now taken up temporary residence in the palace home of an unelected monarch'.
The introduction left Ms Allsopp furious and she tweeted: 'Get him off, please get him off @bbcr4today'.
She added: 'Peter Hunt has paid his dues, please put him out of his misery & give the Royals to someone else, he clearly loathes them.
'He was so down on "shooting" Prince William re ivory speech, but comparing "unelected" HM Queen & China Premier is too much'.
When someone then agreed with the comparison Ms Allsopp said sarcastically: 'I know, she's such a slacker that HM The Queen'.
Mr Hunt and the Today programme were named in the tweets but did not respond to the criticism. MailOnline has asked the BBC to comment.
Peter Hunt is not the first royal correspondent to be criticised over coverage, with veteran Nicholas Witchell upsetting the palace in the past.
Famously a few days before Prince Charles was to marry Camilla Parker Bowles ten years ago, Nicholas Witchell asked a question directed at William and Harry about how they felt about their father's impending nuptials.
Under his breath, but loud enough to be recorded, Charles said to his sons: 'I can't bear that man. I mean, he's so awful, he really is'.
The trigger is said to go back to 2000 and a report by the red-haired former Six O’clock News presenter about a planned trip to the Greek Islands by Charles and Camilla.
Witchell, who had been appointed royal correspondent two years earlier, drew parallels between that holiday and the exotic vacations of Edward VIII and his mistress Mrs Simpson.
The reporter is also said to have caused anger in 2002 during announcement of the death of Princess Margaret, where he also mentioned her lovers and drinking 'copious' amounts of whisky.
Most recently it was claimed that Prince William refused to speak after the birth of his second child Princess Charlotte because Witchell was present.
Today Queen and Duke of Edinburgh formally welcomed China's President Xi Jinping to Britain with a ceremony full of pomp and pageantry.
At London's Horse Guards Parade - Henry VIII's former jousting yard - the two heads of state shook hands ushering in closer ties between Britain and China.
Among the dignitaries watching was David Cameron who has hailed the visit as an 'important moment' in relations between the two nations, but the Prime Minister is facing pressure to raise concerns over human rights issues and the 'dumping' of cheap steel with the Chinese leader.
Mr Xi and the Prince of Wales arrived in a chauffeur-driven limousine and behind them in another car was the Duchess of Cornwall and the president's wife Peng Liyuan.
The party had made the short trip from the exclusive Mandarin Oriental hotel in nearby Knightsbridge and as their car arrived on the parade ground the Queen and Philip turned to face them.
The muffled sound of a 41-gun royal salute rang out as the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery in nearby Green Park, fired the volleys.
The Queen introduced the President to leading figures from her Government and national life including Mr Cameron, Home Secretary Theresa May, Alan Yarrow, the Lord Mayor of the City of London and Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe.
Military top brass were also presented to China's leader - General Sir Nicholas Houghton, Chief of the Defence Staff, Vice Admiral Sir Philip Jones, The Fleet Commander, General Sir Nicholas Carter, Chief of the General Staff, Air Chief Marshal Sir Andrew Pulford, Chief of the Air Staff.
