JK Rowling smacked down someone on Twitter who appeared angry at her statement about Mike Pence.

The author replied to someone who said they were going to burn her books and films in response to her tweeting a Bible verse at the Vice President.

They said: "Glad I caught this article on Yahoo. Now I will burn your books and movies too".

And she replied: "Well, the fumes from the DVDs might be toxic and I've still got your money, so by all means borrow my lighter".
