The rate of signing is the highest the site has ever had to deal with and we have had to make some changes to ensure the site remains stable and open for signatures and new petitions. Thanks for bearing with us.

A lot of people have been asking about numbers. Between 80,000 and 100,000 people have been simultaneously viewing the petition to revoke article 50. Nearly 2,000 signatures are being completed every minute.

Also, @monteiro spoke about having a professional organisation at your back - that's why I helped start @_web_matters_ . We're only as strong as our membership.

.@monteiro's Dusseldorf talk echoes a lot of what I spoke about last year on soft ethics, hard professionalism, and where we're going as an industry - which I'll be writing about a lot over the next few weeks. Worth watching. beyondtellerrand.com/events/duessel…

I have been the senior web dev for three banks and always made sure accessibility was a non-negotiable part of the web presence: in the modern world managing your money online is an essential service that everyone needs to be able to access.
