indignation

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'outrage' is the definition.
(I know that outrage can be written as indignation)

'i make gibes about northern people' is the wordplay.
'i make gibes' becomes 'idig' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'northern' becomes 'n' (abbreviation e.g. N. Ireland).
'people' becomes 'nation'.
'idig' placed around 'n' is 'indig'.
'indig'+'nation'='INDIGNATION'

'creating' is the link.
