Welsh broadcaster and media personality Carol Vorderman has left her weekly radio show on BBC Radio Wales after breaking the broadcaster’s social media guidelines.

The BBC recently updated its guide on individual use of social media. Under the new rules, flagship presenters and those working across all news divisions are free to express their views on social media, but should stop short of endorsing or attacking political parties.
