    Following concerns over the use of X's Grok AI tool under Elon Musk's direction and management, we can no longer operate on X while remaining true to our values of equality and inclusivity. You can find us on Bluesky, LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram.

    Replying to @YorkStJohn
    'You are born enough, you don't have to always be adding value to yourself. There are things in life beyond work and the tools for happiness are already inbuilt in you.' Several sniffles in the crowd after an emotional & rousing speech from @matthaig1🎓 #WeAreYSJ
