Honestly, some folk should really need a license to access the internet.
Great British Bake Off presenter Sue Perkins was last week placed as the odds on favourite, alongside Dermot O'Leary, to take over from Jeremy Clarkson as host of Top Gear. Perkins subsequently denied the rumours but that didn't stop her from receiving a barrage of abuse on social media from those that didn't think her a 'suitable' host.
Seriously, what's wrong with people?
You can see her tweets below;
Guys, post the utterly fabricated story about me & Top Gear, my timeline has been full of blokes wishing me dead...

This morning, someone suggested they'd like to see me burn to death.

All of which goes to say that I am off Twitter for a bit. Love and peace x
