JK Rowling was told that as someone from Britain, she should "mind [her] own business" and stop tweeting about Donald Trump.

In reply, she said it is the rest of the world's business whether "ignorant" Mr Trump is elected, because of his proximity to the nuclear codes if he becomes President.

The author originally wrote: "'It's your fault I didn't pay taxes, Hillary. Women let you do anything when you're a star.'", from the perspective of the Republican presidential nominee.

A Twitter user named Gina Murray replied: "Aren't you British? Mind your own business #USA"
