They officially represent British interests in their information, which is to be expected, as they act as a UK equivalent to Voice of America, RT, NHK, CCTV or any other international state broadcaster you can think of. Truth is not only subjective but constantly up for grabs. These old school but still massive (as far as reach) often opposing state broadcasters are somehow quaint in todays landscape.
No, they represent English interests, the bias against the other home-nations especially Scotland is incredible even from BBC Scotland itself, it's quite subtle to an outsider but to someone who lives here, the BBC is not the impartial broadcaster that it's meant to be anymore.
