Carole Vorderman sensationally quits radio show over new social media guidelines
08.11.2023 - 14:13 / ok.co.uk
Carol Vorderman has decided to leave her BBC radio show due to new social media guidelines.
The former Countdown star, who's been hosting a Saturday morning show on BBC Radio Wales for five years, said she's "not prepared to lose my voice" after the corporation introduced new rules. Carol has been quite outspoken about the Government on social media and has had several online spats with Tory MPs. In a statement, she said: "The BBC recently introduced new social media guidelines, which I respect.
"However, despite my show being light-hearted with no political content, it was explained to me that, as it's a weekly show in my name, the new guidelines would apply to all and any content that I post all year round. "Since those non-negotiable changes to my radio contract were made, I've found that I'm not prepared to lose my voice on social media, change who I am, or lose the ability to express the strong beliefs I hold about the political turmoil this country finds itself in. "My decision has been to continue to criticise the current UK Government for what it has done to the country which I love and I'm not prepared to stop.
I was brought up to fight for what I believe in, and I will carry on." She added: "Consequently, I have now breached the new guidelines and BBC Wales management have decided I must leave. We each must make our decisions. "I'm sad to have to leave the wonderful friends I've made at Radio Wales.
