The Guardian's corrections and clarifications column for June 9, 2026, addresses several errors in previously published articles. The corrections aim to maintain journalistic integrity and accuracy.
Corrections
An article on June 7 about the UK economy incorrectly stated that the inflation rate had fallen to 2.5%. In fact, the correct figure was 2.3%, as reported by the Office for National Statistics. The error has been corrected in the online version.
A feature on June 5 about the Wimbledon tennis championships misidentified the winner of the 2025 women's singles title. It was Elena Rybakina, not Iga Swiatek. The text has been amended accordingly.
Clarifications
In a June 4 article on climate change, a quote from a scientist was attributed to Dr. Emma Johnson. The quote was actually from Dr. Mark Thompson. The attribution has been corrected.
An obituary for Sir John Smith published on June 3 incorrectly stated that he served as CEO of a major corporation. Sir John was a board member, not CEO. This has been clarified.
The Guardian apologizes for these errors and thanks readers for bringing them to our attention. Corrections are also noted in our daily corrections column in the print edition.
