‘Vile’ TikToker blasted for comparing disabled kids to vegetables

A petition has been set up to remove her from the platform

A TikToker has been on the receiving end of a huge backlash after she compared disabled children to "vegetables." In a now-deleted livestream, Kerrie Essex Baker, from Crewe, made the awful comments alongside her husband Darren. In the stream, she said that the two instances when she believes abortion should be legal is when the woman has "not consented or you baby is literally going to be a vegetable and have not life." She continued: "A vegetable, yeah, you know what I'm saying, like can't walk, can't talk, just sat there. She then pulled a face mocking disabled people.

I don't think before I speak." Parents of children with special needs condemned her for the comments, the Mail reports. A Change.org petition has since been set up calling for her permanent removal from the platform following her "disgusting" comments.

Before her account was deactivated, Kerrie posted an apology video in which she said: "I'm utterly sorry, I really am sorry. It takes a lot for me to say sorry, but I know I'm wrong. Related links:
