Facebook boss is grilled for wriggling out of Parliament sessions

Описание: A senior MP today launched a blistering attack on Facebook - accusing the social media giant of trying to dodge questions and treating Parliament with contempt. Labour MP Helen Jones gave the company a ferocious dressing down for pulling out of appearances in front of her select committee. She warned Karim Palant, Facebook's UK public policy chief, that 'you do not play games with the House of Commons'. Her furious rebuke came as the Facebook boss joined Twitter and Google chiefs in being grilled by MPs on what they are doing to tackle online abuse and extremism. Mr Karim admitted to MPs that the tech firm took down 2.5 million hate speech posts in the first three months of the year. The grilling kicked off to a tense start when Ms Jones, the chairwoman of the  petitions select committee, tore into Mr Palant and his colleagues for wriggling out of committee sessions.
