If you're in the UK, this is important. Indefinite Leave to Remain is ALREADY an expensive and laborious process for people looking to build a life here. Migrants have no access to benefits during this time, and pay a surcharge for access to the NHS. petition.parliament.uk/signatures/1...

Off to #SDinGov tomorrow! Dinner pre/post the pre-event? My old favourite, The Auld Hoose Hoose 🍽️ is convenient halfway between my hotel and the venue

If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty crap about my small business. It’s so bloody difficult at the moment with rising costs, US tariffs, Brexit nonsense and the threat of AI. Please have a look at what I do and repost to spread the word gailmyerscough.co.uk

Baby's first keynote. lconic @herahussain.bsky.social presents the opening talk at #CampDigital while simultaneously being a parent. Normalise this!

Updated my website to @getkirby.com version 5! 🎉 Updating a five-year-stale PHP setup reminded me how much has changed—grateful for AI speeding up what would’ve once felt impossible as someone who hates having to tinker with backend code.

Today marks one year since I joined the Civil Service—what a year it’s been, with department changes and a new government along the way. Navigating digital accessibility challenges in such a large and evolving organisation hasn’t been easy, but I’m learning to value the small wins […]

Hello friends with a personal website (and friends who want one)! 🩵 Tomorrow I will be co-hosting Homebrew Website (London timezone). Join us online! Everyone from any timezone is welcome. Check what we’re about: events.indieweb.org/2025/06/home...

Recent changes across government departments mean I’ve to use Windows via a virtual machine on Mac as an interim fix. Each day starts with a 10+ minute wait just to log in and open Outlook or Teams—a daily reminder why I never looked back after switching my personal computer to a Mac 10 years ago.
