The Guardian's corrections and clarifications column for June 19, 2026, includes the following updates:
Corrections
An article published on June 17 about the local council elections incorrectly stated that the turnout was 45%. The correct figure is 52%. We apologise for the error.
A photograph in the June 18 edition misidentified the person as the mayor of Sydney. The person pictured was actually the deputy mayor. The error has been corrected online.
Clarifications
A report on June 16 about the new housing policy stated that it would affect all homeowners. We wish to clarify that the policy only applies to properties valued over $2 million.
An opinion piece on June 15 referenced a study that claimed coffee consumption reduces heart disease risk. We clarify that the study was observational and does not prove causation.
We strive to maintain high standards of accuracy and transparency. If you notice an error, please contact our corrections team.
