Facebook bans pages aimed at US election interference
Facebook says it has removed accounts suspected of influencing the US political agenda.
Facebook says it has removed accounts suspected of influencing the US political agenda. Our technology correspondent in San Francisco, Dave Lee, gives us the latest. Also, global car exporting nations have met in Geneva to discuss the threat of new US auto tariffs. We find out more from our correspondent in Geneva, Imogen Foulkes. We also hear the perspective of the American automotive industry from Paul Eisenstein, publisher of The Detroit Bureau. We get a markets update from Brian Dorst, managing director at Themis Trading in New Jersey. Also in the programme, our regular economic commentator, Roger Bootle of Capital Economics, considers the likelihood of a rise in UK interest rates later this week. We have a report from the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia on an upcoming referendum to change the country's name to North Macedonia, in a bid to end a dispute with Greece over rights to the name. Plus, as high street shops increasingly embrace clothing for plus-size customers, we find out more from Louise O'Reilly, who is a plus-size model, and runs a fashion blog called Style Me Curvy.
