Selfish Accessibility: Slides from WordCamp London 2017
I promised to share the slides, so here they are. If the embed is a problem you can go the slides directly on SlideShare.
Video
The video has just been posted (6 June) so I have embedded it with captions. You can also view it at WordPress.tv if it does not play well from my site. Also, the audio corrects itself at about 3:25.
Ego Tweets
I believe these are generally positive, but I am not hip to the British way.

@aardrian Enjoyed your talk, one of the most engaging of the weekend. Factoring accessibility into user stories was the highlight for me.
