Clare Local Development Company wishes to share that as an organisation, we will no longer use or endorse the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter).
CLDC is an organisation that promotes and practices tolerance and support for all people, especially disadvantaged communities and marginalised voices. We no longer feel that X/Twitter is fairly moderated or democratically managed, and we strongly disagree with actions taken by the company which have contributed to the spread of disinformation and hate speech, incited violence and discrimination, and threatened the safety of the public (particularly people who have faced systemic discrimination). We believe that using X/Twitter is no longer in integrity with our values as an organisation.
We will continue to use other social media platforms in a way that aligns with our values, to the best of our ability.
