I don't want to say this but....

Hi~Teachers.

I came across this expression "I don't want to say this but.." in BBC English We Speak.

I am familiar with "I hate to say this but..." but not this one.

I am wondering if both are common British expressions.

If not which one is more common.

Thanks in advance.
