Wel it's not dishonest to not answer a serious question, it's only dishonest to answer one with wrong information.

Again, a lot of that is the Party politics, an interviewer asks many things hypothetically to try to trap politicians, with questions they know they can't really answer due to having to toe the Party line.
It's irritating and even annoying but not dishonest as by not answering and sidestepping, they haven't said anything really as to the question.

However if you yourself consider it dishonest or at least misleading to not answer a question.
Well you've just then surprisingly expressed admiration for the politician who really does nothing else but deliberately avoid answering anything.
Namely Johnson the PM.
