The Guardian has issued corrections for several recent articles, including errors in a byelection report and a profile of a cultural historian.
Makerfield Byelection Error
An article on the Makerfield byelection, published on 20 June, incorrectly stated that Reform UK's vote share rose by 9.61%. In fact, this was Labour's rise, and the correct figure should have been 9.61 percentage points. Reform UK's share actually rose by 2.7 percentage points. The error appeared in the print edition only.
Inger Leemans Profile Correction
A profile of Inger Leemans, published on 16 June in G2, incorrectly identified her affiliation. Leemans is a professor of cultural history at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, not the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, where she is a researcher.
Other Recently Amended Articles
Other corrections have been made to articles including: 'Why diagnostic test waiting lists are so long'; 'Construction equipment multinationals may be aiding Israeli war crimes, experts say'; 'From camel coats to guochao: Max Mara woos China’s luxury brand consumers'; 'Termination shock: trust our expert warnings on geoengineering’s planetary risks'; 'Two-thirds of EU citizens back UK rejoining bloc, survey finds'; 'Trump unveils new Air Force One, a converted Qatari 747'; 'Messi and Argentina ready to turn up the heat after fast World Cup start'; and 'Marco Bezzecchi banned from Czech MotoGP race after slapping track marshal'.
