TODO:

• Remove cascade styling for nested elements, specifically svg
• Consider ensuring text colour automatically switches between black/white based on WCAG guidance
  • see https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/G18.html
  • can use Polished's readableColor call, but translate their black to govuk's black
