Gregg Wallace fired from MasterChef as 50 people tell BBC of fresh allegations

I never liked him for something really petty. Years ago when I actually used to watch masterchef, some contestant did a dessert that was chocolate and ginger and Gregg said that was an unusual combination despite not being unusual at all and is a common flavour in stores. Maybe that was my spidey sense tingling about him.
I can’t fathom how it would take this long to be diagnosed as being neurodivergent. It seems convenience was the real reason in defence of allegations.
- I can, mental health services in this country are shit and taboo. But being autistic doesn't excuse being a deviant arsehole.
  Pulling down a colleague's trousers and then going "it's because I'm autistic!" only solidifies that he's an arsehole, trying to hide his actions behind a label that he thinks now makes him untouchable.
  Concessions and understanding should be shown to autistic people. Sudden changes in plans, for example, may cause a strong emotional reaction that "neurotypicals" wouldn't experience, but it doesn't mean autistic people are free to completely do as they wish without repercussions
  Actually, what am I saying? Yes, it should allow autistic people to be above the law! Brb, I've got a left wing government to install, nobody can stop me!
