I’m just going to say as someone who lived in London for eleven years and is currently seriously considering going back precisely because of the far right theocratic fascism of Trump, that he’s talking out of his fucking asshole.
Trump to the UN: "I have to say, I look at London where you have a terrible mayor -- terrible terrible mayor -- and it's been so changed, so changed. Now they want to go to Sharia Law ... both their immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe."

A lot of #accessibility annotation kits rely on designers having a technical understanding of semantic roles, landmarks, autocomplete values etc. Lots of Frontend Devs don’t even understand that stuff. As a designer, you just need to be able to articulate the expected outcome for a user.

In 1994 the UK voted the widget inside a can of Guinness as Invention of the Year.

The Internet came second.

TetraLogical was founded 6 years ago by @tink.uk to focus on people and making sustainable change rather than just conformance.

In that time, we've achieved a lot, worked with companies across the globe and have grown the team into a 14-strong band of absolute experts in their specialities.
