It is used in Ireland, especially in political and business contexts, to describe a shrewd, cunning, or sly person who manipulates situations for their own advantage, often in a way that is irritating but vaguely admired. People typically say "He's a cute hoor altogether" or "Only a cute hoor would get away with that." The term originated in 20th century Irish slang, and remains common in Irish English as a mildly affectionate or grudgingly respectful insult.
