7:06 am
what is real news and what is in and what should be free speech and what shouldn't be giving them this overreaching censorship power is absolutely ridiculous and another tech giant for the hates google right now is stuff sage that women's walk out on thursday in protest of the company's handling a sexual misconduct claims ridge from the pitch after revelations that a high profile executive head of legitimate government goldman shaken nearly ninety million dollars despite allegations of sexual misconduct against it for many google staff taking part in this week's industrial action it's not an isolated case they're demanding changes to the tech but he must work culture including greater transparency when setting a recent case as well as the company's value to address the issue. and english seaside village has found itself getting some free and wanted attention in the u.s. mid-term election campaign jake sands is known locally as one of the u.k.'s most deprived areas but images of its dilapidated streets appeared on

a republican party poster but a boy care explains why. what links this essex seaside town to the upcoming u.s. mid-term elections an insensitive political one hundred that's what locals here in jail exxon's in essex have been left feuding after a pro trump republican candidate for the senate for the state of illinois used a photograph of j. wick sands on his social media feed as an anti advertisement so the caption next to the photograph read only you can stop this from becoming a reality but the problem is the picture wasn't quite reality the image of jay wick sounds that he used was taken several years ago and since then the local authorities have made quite a few improvements to the local area so the locals here all rather cross country to try to park in america are and then you come to a cover of a walking tour a week and you see the different plane. when it is in america we don't remember for

they have invested in new roads and new drainage systems it could use more money there is some hesitation when you talk to the locals as well they don't want to talk to the cameras they've been burned before by bad press and they're keen to turn the image of the town around some concede that they could definitely use more investment but it's not up to politicians in america to judge their hometown one interesting suggestion came from the director of a documentary about j. which she said that dr nick stella should come over here and she could show him around the town and so he can see for himself all the improvements that have been made i get the sense that the locals here would have one or two things to say to him. were teenagers a room mate said to us juvenile detention center one of the one hundred eighty thousand dollars settlement after it was revealed the gods forced them to take part in so-called five nights the lawsuit says to god youngsters out of this and into
