Carol Vorderman's son takes swipe at her maths abilities

Carol Vorderman was urged to “get your priorities right” after mocking Conservative MP Suella Braverman’s geographical knowledge.

On Thursday, the former Home Secretary was featured on LBC and critiqued the Labour Party’s management of migration, when she was caught out in an error.

In the clip Carol reshared on X, Braverman said: “As a result of that, the numbers fell. It was a deterrent, Italy reinforced its borders by building a wall. I went to see that wall."

The MP continued: “They built a wall on the land border between Italy and Turkey, they’ve got drones, they’ve got armoured vehicles.”

However, the TV star quickly pointed out the error in her caption and penned: “Suella Braverman has 'seen the wall' on the ‘land border between Italy and Turkey.’”

Carol brutally mocked the MP, adding: “Jeez....what's she on? Next geography lesson from the Flat Earth Society?”

Fans quickly took to the comments defending Braverman including one who replied: “She means Greece not Italy. And yes, borders do work in cutting illegal migration.”

Another raged: “Wtf are you on Carol... you have some f***ed up priorities there.”

As a third wrote: “Anything to ignore the real issues eh? You and @JonathanPieNews got the same memo from the leftist hivemind apparently.”

In addition to the backlash from Braverman’s supporters, the politician was shunned by others for her incorrect comments.

An astonished listener shared: “I could not believe what I was hearing.”

Another echoed: “I suggest there should be qualifications to be in government, basic geography at the very least. @SuellaBraverman thick as sh*t!”
