Everything is politically correct nowadays.

Political correctness? In my humor, I never talk about politics. I was never much into all that.

If you're going to get into social criticism with absurdity and satire, you can't be politically correct when you do that.

I always tried to be correct, not politically correct.

When was the last time you were super offended? I might be like, 'That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard!' Or, 'It's not my thing,' or, 'It was a stupid joke.' But there's such a sensitivity now. Political correctness has become really insidious.

Eddie Murphy said once in an interview that nothing is offensive if it's funny. I sort of agree with that, but if something's funny and you're the subject of it, sometimes it's more offensive. If someone's insulting you, you want them to sound like an idiot.

I'm a politician, and as you know, politicians are rarely very funny.

Being Politically Correct means always having to say you're sorry.

I would say Politically Incorrect is my favourite right now.

The idea of what's acceptable and what's shocking, that's where I investigate. I mean, you can't be on 'Top Gear,' where your only argument is that it's all just a joke and anyone who takes offence is an example of political correctness gone mad, and then not accept the counterbalance to that.
