Not new for THE TIMES. See Randolph Churchill, "Leading Churchill Myths," Finest Hour 140:11-- 'The fact that Churchill did not use troops against the miners is underlined by the fact that Lord Northcliffe’s TIMES, “ever strong upon the stronger side” as Hazlitt had earlier said of it, attacked him on 9 November [1911] for not having used troops." (It took the GUARDIAN, of all papers, to defend Churchill, which is perhaps why he had a soft spot for that paper, which rarely agreed with him.) Wasn't "Murdochisation" supposed to turn TIMES readers into knuckle- dragging reactionaries, not left-wing revisionists?
