Website auto login when in private mode

I have my Firefox browser defaulting to private mode operation so that it clears out all of the cookies and crap on termination. I have this so that any websites I visit that I want to keep secure such as banks, share dealers, pension accounts etc are safe should the computer get lost or stolen. I found out the easy way that, if the battery is removed to stop it becoming excessively discharged when the machine is not in use for several weeks, when the battery is replaced the machine boots up without asking for a login or password. All of my stuff is open and accessible.

So, how can I have non sensitive websites automatically login when visited? Clearly, stuff such as the BBC news do not need to be safe and secure as they hold/keep no critical data relating to my life. The BBC News is getting to be a pain with increasing prompts to log in popping up.

Failing that, can anyone recommend a news website that doesn't need logging in to see it?
