Carol Vorderman slammed for throwing tantrum over Tory party
Carol Vorderman was slammed by former Brexit party MEP Belinda De Lucy, who branded the former Countdown host as “desperate” after her Tory party comments.
Belinda joined GB News host Dan Wootton on Monday night alongside broadcaster Benjamin Butterworth and Express columnist Carole Malone.
Dan touched on Carol’s comment she previously posted on her Twitter account and explained: “In a brand new column, Carol Vorderman’s hatred of Tories has turned her into a raging snob.
“The former Countdown presenter is locked in a bitter feud with conservative MP and war veteran Johnny Mercer and his wife Felicity, and salivating at the prospect of Mercer losing his seat at the general election.
“She tweeted ‘Gosh, what are arrogant Johnny Mercer & his wife going to do for a joint income of £160,000+ plus enormous expenses? Not a degree in sight in spite of expensive private education! So who’d employ then’.”

Belinda was quick to comment on Carol’s comment and slammed: “Carol bless her, oh she is clearly quite desperate, throwing tantrums from the sidelines and pretending to be political when you really haven’t had much experience.
“It’s quite desperate and embarrassing but she has the right to free speech and I think she suits labour perfectly, labour can have her.
“She joins the like of Hugh Grant and Gary Lineker, the sneering snobby, who don’t like their fellow Brits, they are moving further and further away from a working-class labour.
“Carol Vorderman is a perfect reflection of the labour party rejecting their brass roots, working class. You can have a background and reject it later in life.”

Benjamin interjected and expressed: “What you hate while you sit here defending Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees Mog but you hate people who have bettered themselves.
“They’re always in the media with a reason to hate Carol Vorderman, you hate Angela Rainer, you think they should stay in their box.”
Belinda quipped back: “I don’t hate her, I said she has a right to say what she likes. She should face the election and stand for something she is passionate about.
“Face the election and put your money where your mouth is,” she concluded.
