Sky News, on UK Politics, 13 November 2026
We do not republish articles from Sky News. Our findings are below, each quoting the words it is about. Read the full article on the outlet's own site.
Read the original article on news.sky.com (opens in a new tab)Sky News reports that NAPO members voted for strike action and action short of a strike over pay and workloads, with an overtime ban starting on 23 November. It attributes the union's claims on pay, workloads and the early release scheme to the union and gives the ballot figures. Nothing in it misleads the reader.
“The ballot was launched last month following what NAPO called an "unacceptable" 5% pay offer from the government”
Sky News attributes the union's judgement of the pay offer to NAPO rather than stating it in its own voice, and gives the concrete figure.
“The union says that probation wages have stagnated since 2010”
The claim about stagnant wages is clearly attributed to the union, so the reader knows whose account it is.
“Sky News has approached the Ministry of Justice for comment.”
The article tells the reader that the government side was sought, so the absence of a ministry response is not hidden.
