A FRENCH town called Bitche has been cancelled by Facebook – because it sounds like a sexist insult. Now other French places with names including Arse, Anus, Condom, and Pussy also risk being cancelled by the Facebook algorithms. Officials in the small community on the River Horn, on the German border, on Tuesday confirmed that the page "has been censored" since last month. “We’ve appealed but this can take a long while,” said a town hall spokesman in Bitche, which has a population of just 5000." In the meantime, they have renamed their Facebook page ‘Mairie 57230’ – a combination of the word for ‘town hall’ and their postcode. Valérie Degouy, a spokesperson for Bitche, told local radio: “I appealed on 19 March but [the page] hasn’t reappeared again. I have tried every way to contact Facebook, through the different forms, but there is nothing more to do. "I tried to send a private message on the Facebook France page, I left about 10 messages every day. "I was … [Read more...] about French town of BITCHE cancelled by Facebook for its ‘offensive’ name… so will Orgy, Condom and Pussy be next?

US climate envoy John Kerry calls on China to ‘assume responsibility’ for its part in global warming
John Kerry has described the global climate crisis as an "unbelievable monument to the need for multilateralism" and urged China to "assume responsibility" for its part. Mr Kerry, America's first ever climate envoy, signed the Paris Agreement in 2016 on behalf of the US, and has said that "failure is not an option" when it comes to fulfilling its aims. The accord is a legally-binding international treaty, then adopted by 197 countries at a summit in the French capital, which has a goal of limiting global warming to well below 2C, and preferably 1.5C, compared to pre-industrial levels. Donald Trump pulled America out of the agreement when he was president but current commander-in-chief, Joe Biden, re-signed as one of his first acts in office earlier this year. Speaking to Sky News ahead of a visit to China, Mr Kerry said bluntly: "This is not a moment where any nation cannot step up to raise the ambition that Paris envisioned."

Why ‘when are you having kids?’ is the one question you should NEVER ask a woman
ACTRESS Michelle Keegan has vented her frustration at constantly being asked when she will start a family with Mark Wright. Our Girl star Michelle, 33 , is fuming about double standards, as she says former Towie cast member Mark — her hubby of five years — does not suffer the same barrage of questions. As a 38-year-old woman who has been married for eight years, I feel Michelle’s pain. I’ve endured years of questioning — not about if but WHEN I will have kids. The persistent parenting brigade might mean well but I have had a bellyful — not of baby, but of the relentless quizzing over why I am still without child. And at my age, too. In my twenties, having kids was never on the radar. I met my husband Jamie at school and after getting back in touch via Facebook, aged 25, our focus was on careers — mine as a writer and his as a firefighter — plus holidays and buying a house together. As appealing as the Mum and Dad badges might be for some, that life goal … [Read more...] about Why ‘when are you having kids?’ is the one question you should NEVER ask a woman
