Carol Vorderman has been branded a "horrible little snob" by a Conservative MP following one of latest social media rants. Carol, who lives in Clifton, has been embroiled in a bust up with Veterans' Minister Johnny Mercer recently, with other MPs now getting involved.
The feud kicked off around a week ago when Carol claimed the Plymouth Moor View MP was "wrong" for alleging that that food bank use by military personnel is "a personal decision". Carol then reflected on her own upbringing "in poverty", with the Countdown legend's late mum, Jean, working five jobs to feed Carol and her siblings.
Carol also alleged that Mercer, 41, and his wife, Felicity Cornelius-Mercer, 43, who works in his office, had a "total taxpayers' salary of approx £120,000" with a "total cost to taxpayer" of "£373,663". Mercer then hit back at Carol, writing alongside a vomiting emoji: "You are grim."
