Patrick Christys calls out Carol Vorderman's flip flopping from right-wing to left-wing
Carol Vorderman appears to have gone full Tonto again.
This time she's waded into the debate about veterans homelessness and it must have been really hard for Carol to hide her extreme left wing views when she was cozying up to David Cameron, after he made her the Tory government's maths czar.
She must have met with Boris Johnsn through gritted teeth at a Saint David's Day ceremony and put on the acting display of her life when she was cattling away with him and chowing down.
She certainly hid her views really well when she was pictured laughing and joking with Matt Hancock at the races.
It's almost as if Carol is extremely vocal on Twitter and in real life she's a completely different person.
Anyway, she's had serious beef with the wife of our Veterans Minister, Johnny Mercer.
She revealed a a snobby face underneath her mask when she tweeted about Mercer and his wife, Felicity. She wrote: "Not a degree insight in spite of expensive private education. So who'd employ them?"
Some people say Carol Vorderman was binned by the BBC for her rabid social media outlets.
Carol, of course, claims that she left of her own accord because she wouldn't be silenced.
Now she's gone off to Johnny Mercer's record on veterans homelessness, piling in on top of the Labour candidate for Plymouth who said that he'd missed his targets to house homeless veterans.
Mercer immediately hit back. He responded by saying: "OK. You are both deliberately misleading people for clicks because that makes your **** lonely life feel better.
"No one normal really cares about your view. They think you're mad. I'm changing veterans lives.
"What I came into politics to do. Keep going."
I want to make it clear that I don't think that Johnny Mercer was well advised to tweet that.
I don't have a personal problem with Carol Vorderman. I just find her political shift genuinely fascinating.
Anyone who knows Johnny Mercer knows that he's done the best that he can with veterans homelessness. He does genuinely care.
I would be intrigued to know what Carol's views are about the historic prosecutions of veterans who fought in the Troubles.
The EU loving left seems to be broadly in favour of that kind of thing. Is she? Because if she is, I dare say that undermines her outrage about veterans.
A scroll through Carol Vorden's Twitter feed reads like a non-stop anti Tory barrage. You just wonder don't you? When Cameron was riding high, she was all over it.
Now it looks like Labour are going to get in and she's all over them.
Could it perhaps be that she wants to be close to power? Maybe she was promised a place in the House of Lords and didn't get it? That's just speculation.
Is Johnny Mercer right? Should we care about Carol Vorderman's view?
