It does seem like a rather unfortunate choice of words for someone who aspires to lead. He is usually a bit more coy too, I guess the stress of the previous days revelations may be playing on him.

Think Chris Rock and his most infamous routine. I had a meeting with a Unionist councillor this week...man... Did he hate Loyalists. I was also in a meeting with a Unionist MLA who had been fooled by loyalists. My colleague had the pleasure of telling him he had his head filled with ****.... You could see the moment the penny dropped. Livid that he had been put in that position. If Chris Rock was a white Unionist who said "man... I hate loyalists" and then did the same routine. I'd reckon you'd not be too far wide of the mark.
Filthy Bigots to pay back money stolen from taxpayer The DUP's Gregory Campbell has agreed to hand back more than £60,000 worth of profits from a taxpayer-funded home, Westminster's expenses watchdog has revealed. Between them, six DUP MPs have agreed to hand back a total of £143,909.46 under new rules introduced in the wake of the expenses scandal. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) announced that 70 politicians have agreed to repay the sums, totaling almost £500,000. It means the DUP will be handing back more than a quarter of all the money being returned, with East Londonderry MP Gregory Campbell sending back the second highest amount of £61,403. While DUP MPs are the only ones from Northern Ireland required to hand sums back, there is no suggestion of any impropriety. The money is being returned because of new rules brought in following public fury surrounding the MPs' expenses scandal in 2009. MPs from outside London are allowed to claim accommodation expenses to stay overnight while attending Westminster. But instead of using hotels or renting, they previously were able to use expenses to pay mortgage interest payments on second homes. As the property increased in value, it meant it could be sold for profit later. The watchdog decided to ban the use of Commons expenses to pay mortgage interest in May 2010. However, interim arrangements were put in place for MPs elected before 2010 who had already committed to mortgages. They were allowed to keep claiming the money up until last August – as long as they agreed to return any potential capital gain. Some 71 MPs claimed almost £1m between them over the 15-month period but the majority were not asked to make repayments, because surveyors' reports or sale prices showed that their properties had not gained in value. However, 29 of them were asked to make payments to reflect the increased value of houses and flats – many of them in London, which had bucked the sluggish housing market prevailing in the rest of the country at the time. Last night, Mr Campbell said: "As part of the new expenses system introduced at Westminster I sold a property which previously had been purchased. "This sale has resulted in the taxpayer being some £60,000 better off. "At no point neither I nor any of my colleagues queried or contested the figures put forward by Ipsa."
