Although that news clip is in England (literally a few minutes away from where I grew up, to be specific) he's actually Scottish, which is pretty distinct - accent wise - from what most would call 'standard' English. I doubt if any English person listening to him would make any value judgement about the way he spoke other than recognising that he was Scottish - which by and large isn't stigmatised at all.
