Dr. Karen Devine:

I said it is interesting. As an academic, in a way I am bizarrely detached from the concept of neutrality. I do not tend to give my personal opinions on it. People think I have personal opinions because I am really devoted to the academic truth. I find that 99% of what is said about neutrality is simply not true. That enrages me and people start to think I must be really pro-neutrality. It is just a case of having an academic interest in the matter. I am concerned with the truth.
