smiling beside a bright young thing who took her own life because of the vitriol thrown in her direction, Caroline Flack. Oh how we have forgotten the hashtag Be Kind. Well yes, say the trolls, but we are right about this one. No you are not and do we really need that level of anger and downright hatred? No we do not, blame thebosses who sent them there, but don’t blame the presenters.
Let me get back to Strictly; that glorious programme that often stops you in your dance tracks to realise that deaf people, or gay people or disabled people want to dance too. That they have as much right to as the rest of us. So I am saddened that even before the first vote-off Ellie Symonds the golden girl of the Paralympics who achieved so much in the pool and nervously wanted to try something new was the victim of trolls. Well shame on you.
So here is my point. It is no good me saying ‘Be Kind’ to those who are not, and who never will be. It is up to us to cull them from our lives and answer them with a firm ‘not in my name’. There are so many other important issues to be tackled, which collectively we can do something about. We can check on our neighbours to make sure they are coping with food and heating or just the stress of it all .
So trolls get back under your bridge. I am having none of your nasty little games. Instead lead me by the hand towards bread week and pie week. Let your buns be light and fluffy and ignore those who would wish you a soggy bottom . Take me whirling and spinning metaphorically, for a while at least, towards Hallowe’en and Movie week and towards Blackpool, that great ballroom of fun and laughter.
