Exactly. The BBC didn't add content, merely changed slant of what he said by editing. He said all of it, and in that order.

Quite!
Hopefully the majority of Americans aren't dumb enough to fall for his line "never mind what I've done, look what he might have..."
With luck this is karma finally catching up with him.

Waitrose? And that proves how out of touch KB is. If she'd meant real "common" then surely it'd be an Aldi/Lidl or a Co-op!
