That's true. The Spectator is known for its conservative stance and its close association with the British Conservative establishment. Several prominent UK politicians rose through the ranks by working at the Spectator.
Like the conservative establishment politicians in Britain, the Spectator has supported Ukraine consistently throughout its war with Russia. The British government and its media are very much pro-Ukraine.
So it is noteworthy when a newspaper like this publishes something which goes against its normal partisan line. When your most consistent supporters start to talk about your corruption, there's a good chance they are preparing the public for a change in the power structure. If the people propping up Zelensky are beginning to speak ill of him in very public ways, he may well be in trouble.
Anyway, if you know anything about the content of the story -- why its assertions are incorrect, for example -- you could address that.
