The Guardian has published corrections and clarifications for errors that appeared in recent articles. The following items address mistakes in our reporting from April 23, 2026.
London Housing Policy Correction
In an article titled "London's Affordable Housing Crisis Deepens" published on April 22, 2026, we incorrectly stated that the Mayor of London had approved 10,000 new affordable homes in the past year. The correct figure is 8,500. The error arose from a misinterpretation of data provided by the Greater London Authority. We apologize for the mistake and have updated the online version of the article accordingly.
Climate Report Quote Misattribution
An article on April 21, 2026, about the latest IPCC climate report included a quote that was misattributed. The quote, "We are running out of time to avert catastrophic warming," was attributed to Dr. Jane Smith, but it was actually spoken by Dr. John Doe, a lead author of the report. The error was introduced during the editing process. We regret the confusion and have corrected the attribution.
