The usual from the BBC. "When"
“The honest answer…”
An Innocuous phrase that reveals an awful lot.
Firstly, this person can’t write and I don’t believe is a journalist (backed up by the fact there’s no byline).
Clarifying you’re giving an honest answer implies you may not do at other times. It’s simply not something a journalist would write because (no laughing at the back) it should go without saying that your articles are fair, accurate and in good faith.
There’s a really strong whiff of something being not quite right about the article from top to bottom.
