"No cups of tea"
Gregory Campbell predicts a fairly frosty "business like" relationship between himself and Martin McGuinness across the Stormont Executive table. On Saturday's Inside Politics (12.45pm on BBC Radio Ulster) he also talks about how the DUP will use its influence at Westminster in the months ahead and how he will deal with some of the items in his ministerial in tray at the Department of Culture.

The DD Moderators removed my Post (no 1) which was on screen for a couple of days (where would we be without them?). Undaunted, I have reworked that contribution and now offer a bowdlerized version.
GREGORY ISN'T EXACTLY A BUNDLE OF FUN
At Westminster it is known as the Department of Fun but listening to Gregory on Inside Politics I think we may have to change DCAL’s name to the Department of Misery. Dear oh dear, the humourless Gregory would give an Aspro a headache. And what utter nonsense he spouts about the need to put Ulster-Scots on a par with the auld Gaeilge. How can anyone take Gregory seriously in his desire for equal status for Ulster-Scots vis-à-vis the Irish language? Irish is a vibrant, in-use language while Ulster-Scots is a cobbled-together "DIY language".
Hold on, though, hold on! Maybe I'm wrong about Gregory lacking a sense of humour. Remember last February when he explained the circumstances * surrounding payment of public money to his wife for the rent of his constituency office. Now that one had me in stitches.
