"Flagrant behaviour", and from a (Prime) Minister!

According to Lance Price, a former Deputy Communications Adviser (i.e. "spin doctor") to the Prime Minister, Tony Blair uses the odd Anglo-Saxon vernacular from time to time. However mixed as it was with an supposedly ethnic grouping (in this case the Welsh), does this not create a rather more sensitive situation for the Prime Minister? Now, it was only a few days ago that a football fan was found guilty of comitting a racially aggravated breach of the peace by calling the then Celtic striker Craig Bellamy "a Welsh bastard". Given that Tony Blair reputedly insulted an entire nation/Principality whereas the football fan insulted a single person (who it seems did not even hear the insult) then what sort of punishment would be fitting for Mr Blair?
