Campaigns

News Recovery Plan. A Future for News: the NUJ’s recovery plan for the news industry is the updated road map to reinvigorate the industry and sets out a bold set of measures and interventions to protect jobs and quality journalism. Its proposals address the threat of generative AI and how the cost-of-living crisis has added significant additional pressure to an already beleaguered sector.

Artificial intelligence: journalism before algorithms. Stay updated on the NUJ’s AI campaign, including calls for urgent regulatory oversight to protect the integrity of journalism and journalists' rights. The union will attend the UK government's AI and copyright working group to voice members' concerns on pay, job security, and rights infringements.

#ShowUsTheMoney: the NUJ is campaigning for increased salary transparency. Too many job adverts do not include salary details, and research shows this disadvantages women, disabled workers and Black and minority ethnic workers. Find out more on our calls.

Dear Jan=2C

Greetings from the NUJ. =

I hope this email finds you well in what are extremely d= ifficult times at so many levels. Thank you for your ongoing membership an= d for your commitment to the union.

This past week we= have again called on the Israeli government to stop targeting journalists= and to lift the embargo on foreign media.

This has been the deadliest war in recent history for our industry= : at least 189 journalists and media workers - including 175 Palestinians= - have been killed since 7 October 2023.

At our Delegate Meeting in April=2C members voted for the union to a= ccelerate its campaigning in collaboration with the International Federati= on of Journalists (IFJ) and our sister union the Palestinian Journalists'= Syndicate (PJS).

<= br />

The NUJ=2C IFJ=2C= and PJS are among the signatories of an open letter calling for the UK go= vernment to exert pressure for journalists to be granted access to report= from Gaza=2C for an investigation into the targeting of journalists by Is= raeli forces=2C and for the adoption of a UN convention on the safety of j= ournalists.

<= /p>

We encourage members to= sign the letter in solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza. Please take a= few moments to add your name.

We also encourage mem= bers to donate to the=C2=A0IFJ Safety Fund=2C which provides vital support to journalists aro= und the world. We are grateful to=C2=A0members for their generous donation= s to the Fund in recent years.

In so= lidarity=2C

Dear Jan

When better than the holiday season to read your copy of The Journalist? The new edition is available here and the Freelance supplement is here.

Many of us are enjoying a well-earned break now and nobody more so than our colleagues who are stressed from unrealistic page view targets and the prospect of chicken feed bonuses or unfair disciplinary action depending on the clicks they get. We visit Page View Farm in our cover feature by Sean Meleady.

Page view targets and general clickbait demands cut the time available to journalists to talk to people. But Sophie Atherton finds that when you have the time to speak to a press officer you can’t find one. Barckley Sumner, who looks after the busy communications for the Unite union, disagrees, though he thinks reporters are losing the art of chatting and getting valuable insights.

We also have our regular features of On Our Patch – this time Ruth Addicott talks to reporters about covering Elvis impersonators in Porthcawl – and our columnists Ray Snoddy and Chris Proctor.

If you’re a full member of the NUJ and would prefer The Journalist in print please update your preferences on MyNUJ on www.nuj.org.uk or email journalist@nuj.org.uk

I hope you enjoy this edition of your magazine.

Christine Buckley

Editor

The Journalist August-September 2025

Whatever you are doing, we hope it goes well! The next London Freelance Branch meeting is on Monday, *8 September 2025* at *6:30pm*. We expect to hear from Brian Pelan talking about how he launched VIEW, to “cover issues that have a major effect on society and get readers talking about them”. We'll send notice a week before. ===== 2) Our frequent appeal: how much are you getting for your work? The Rate for the Job service helps you negotiate, but only if others have reported rates relevant to the work you're discussing. So in the spirit of solidarity /and/ self-interest please share what you have had or been offered for freelance work - in strict confidence. https://www.londonfreelance.org/rates/submit.php You reporting rates is essential to us being able to produce the /Freelance Fees Guide/: https://www.londonfreelance.org/feesguide ===== 3) Committee and Council vacancies For you to ponder over the summer: there are vacancies on several of the Councils that advise the NUJ's National Executive Council, and one on the NEC itself: * National Executive Council (London seat: open to full members with a London postcode) * Freelance Industrial Council (FIC: two London seats as above; one East Anglia seat; and others further afield) * Photographers' Council (one seat open to a full member with an address in South East England) * Equality Council (one seat open to a full member under 30) If you are interested in the far-flung FIC seats, or in vacancies on the Appeals Committee, or on the board of the charity NUJ Extra, please contact editor@londonfreelance.org The September meeting will vote on /nominating /members for these positions: if the wider union comes up with more than one nomination for a post there will be an election for it. Also, London Freelance Branch is looking for a second Training Officer. ===== 4) *Awards* Entries for the /Freelancing for Journalists/ Freelance Journalism Awards 2025 close on *29 August*. London Freelance Branch has voted to sponsor two of them.

Greetings, freelance -

Please see below for the online Freelance contents and more.

1) London Freelance Branch meetings: not in August

Of course some are on holiday - and for those freelances who do shifts covering for staffers it may be peak work time.

Whatever you are doing, we hope it goes well!

The next London Freelance Branch meeting is on Monday, 8 September 2025 at 6:30pm.

We expect to hear from Brian Pelan talking about how he launched VIEW, to “cover issues that have a major effect on society and get readers talking about them”. We'll send notice a week before.

=====

2) Our frequent appeal: how much are you getting for your work?

The Rate for the Job service helps you negotiate, but only if others have reported rates relevant to the work you're discussing. So in the spirit of solidarity and self-interest please share what you have had or been offered for freelance work - in strict confidence.
https://www.londonfreelance.org/rates/submit.php
You reporting rates is essential to us being able to produce the Freelance Fees Guide:
https://www.londonfreelance.org/feesguide

=====

3) Committee and Council vacancies

For you to ponder over the summer: there are vacancies on several of the Councils that advise the NUJ's National Executive Council, and one on the NEC itself:

National Executive Council (London seat: open to full members with a London postcode)
Freelance Industrial Council (FIC: two London seats as above; one East Anglia seat; and others further afield)
Photographers' Council (one seat open to a full member with an address in South East England)
Equality Council (one seat open to a full member under 30)

If you are interested in the far-flung FIC seats, or in vacancies on the Appeals Committee, or on the board of the charity NUJ Extra, please contact editor@londonfreelance.org

The September meeting will vote on nominating members for these positions: if the wider union comes up with more than one nomination for a post there will be an election for it.

Also, London Freelance Branch is looking for a second Training Officer.

=====

4) Awards

Entries for the Freelancing for Journalists Freelance Journalism Awards 2025 close on 29 August. London Freelance Branch has voted to sponsor two of them.

Protecting journalists and truth in Gaza

The NUJ, International Federation of Journalists, and Palestinian Journalists’ Syndicate are among signatories of an open letter urging action to protect journalists and truth in Gaza. The letter calls on the UK government to exert pressure for journalists to be granted access to report from Gaza, for an investigation into the targeting of journalists by Israeli forces, and for the adoption of a UN convention on the safety of journalists. We encourage members to sign the letter in solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza. Please take a few moments to add your name. We also encourage members to donate to the IFJ Safety Fund, which provides vital equipment and medical packs for journalists, including in Gaza. We are grateful to members for their generous donations to the Fund so far.

Events

An updated exhibition celebrates the work of award-winning journalist and NUJ member Dom Phillips, who was murdered alongside indigenous expert Bruno Pereira while researching a book on deforestation in the Amazon. 'For Dom, Bruno & the Amazon' runs until 2 September at Halton Mill, Lancaster. More details.

Branch officers should have now received the registration link for the NUJ branches summit. All branches have been invited to participate in the online summit, which takes place on 13 September, 2pm-5pm. Please encourage your branch to send delegates.

Dear colleague -

London Freelance Branch will hold a vigil for colleagues killed in Gaza on Wednesday 13 August at 10 Downing Street.

Please gather at 17:30 - initially in the protest area on Whitehall opposite the Downing Street gates.

We are preparing cards remembering each of the 192 colleagues who are confirmed to have been killed in Gaza by Israeli military action.

We will read their names aloud.

It would therefore be excellent if there were 192 of us.

If you want to bring placards, we ask you that they bear only messages remembering our slain colleagues and demanding an end to the killing of journalists.

In a moment there will be a page at www.londonfreelance.org/fl/2508gaza-vigil.html for you to share on social media.

We will on Wednesday and in the coming days demand action from the UK government to:

ensure that surviving Palestinian journalists in Gaza, alongside the rest of the population, have immediate safe access to food, water and necessary equipment;
ensure that non-Palestinian journalists are able to enter Gaza to report alongside their Palestinian colleagues and that they are then able to report freely and independently and are not required to be “embedded” or otherwise under supervision; and
support an investigation by the International Criminal Court into the blatant targeting of journalists and media workers by Israeli forces; and ensure the passage of a UN binding Convention on the safety and independence of journalists and other media professionals.

For details of the latest killings see www.londonfreelance.org/fl/2311gaza-deaths.html#AnasalSharif

New Press Card Hotline Number

<= tr class=3D"mceRow">

Dear Jan=2C

NUJ Membership Number: 0919264

As y= our press card issuer=2C we at the NUJ need to inform you that the verification hotline number that is on the back of your press card has no= w been changed to 01430 456 543= .

This= is due to changes in telecommunication systems used by a number of offici= al bodies and companies meaning the original =E2=80=980870=E2=80=99 number= cannot be reached by their phones and mobiles.

Until all existing cards have been replaced=2C at= the point the previous =E2=80=980870=E2=80=99 number will automatically d= ivert to the 01430 456 543.

We would advise that you also save the new number 01430 456 543 on your own mobile phone.

Greetings, freelance -

1) Honouring Gazan journalists

London Freelance Branch calls on journalists and media workers to join us on Wednesday 27 August at 17:30 opposite Downing Street, where we will honour the courageous reporting of the journalists of Gaza.

We will read out the names of those killed and honour the bravery of our colleagues who continue to report, knowing that they may be killed at any moment.

We express our solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza and demand protection for those reporting, justice, and an end to impunity for the slaughter of journalists in the Gazan genocide.

This event will follow the handing in of a letter, setting out demands and questions to Kier Starmer, to 10 Downing Street at 16:00. You are welcome to come to wave us off then, too, if you can.

Please join us when you can.

48 hours of solidarity action

We commend members' solidarity in response to Israeli forces' continued targeted killings of journalists in Gaza, with branches organising impressive vigils and protests over the last two weeks.

From 26-27 August we’re encouraging members to participate in 48 hours of further solidarity action. On Wednesday 27 August, we're inviting members across the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe to come together for a virtual vigil, starting at 12:30pm and ending no later than 1:15pm, to commemorate colleagues killed in the current Gaza conflict and to highlight the vital importance of press freedom. The vigil will be a webinar held via Zoom. Register here.

We’re also suggesting various actions members can take independently or collectively - either in branches, in the workplace, or at home:

Donate to the IFJ Safety Fund, which offers financial and medical assistance to journalists around the world - including in Gaza.
Join with branch or chapel members to agree collective statements of solidarity in line with our demands for the NUJ website.
Sign our open letter calling for the UK government to exert serious pressure to protect journalists in Gaza and support an independent investigation to end impunity.
Organise workplace actions, vigils or moments of reflection. For example hold a chapel or branch meeting and agree a collective donation to the fund or a statement.
Post on social media to highlight this attack on the truth and press freedom. Download the NUJ graphics and use the #StopKillingJournalists hashtag.

This list is not proscriptive but please ensure that your activity is appropriate and organised with collective support of members and in liaison with your employer as required. We also remind members to take special care to adhere to your employer’s social media policy. Please contact campaigns@nuj.org.uk to share your activities with us and tag us on social media at @NUJofficial.

We will read out the names of those killed and honour the bravery of our colleagues who continue to report, knowing that they may be killed at any moment. We express our solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza and demand protection for those reporting, justice, and an end to impunity for the slaughter of journalists in the Gazan genocide. The reading of the names is the main event. Sadly the "double-tap" airstrike on Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, killing journalists, alongside rescue workers, as they responded to the first "tap", along with further confirmations of earlier deaths by the International Federation of Journalists, brings our count of colleagues killed in Gaza to 222 - plus 2 in the West Bank, 4 in Israel, 9 in Lebanon, 1 in Syria and 3 in Iran. We will also hear a recorded message from Al Jazeera Gazan reporter Wael Al Dahdouh. Ahmed Alanouq of the Gazan “We Are Not Numbers” project will speak, as will Sangita Myska, late of LBC Radio. This event will follow the handing in of a letter, setting out demands and questions to Keir Starmer, to 10 Downing Street at *16:00*. You are welcome to come to wave us off then, too, if you can. The letter is now co-signed by London Central Branch, NUJ London Magazine Branch, London Digital Media Branch, officers of the /FT/ Group Chapel, Brussels Branch, NUJ Ethics Council and noted film-maker Sarah Beddington. Please join us when you can. Please share this widely. For details of speakers as they are confirmed and information on other branches' statements and events see: https://www.londonfreelance.org/fl/2508gaza-vigil-2.html We also urge you to write to Keir Starmer & David Lammy: see Open letter on protecting journalists and defending truth in Gaza on nuj.org.uk ===== 2) How much are you getting for your work?

This is a reminder that London Freelance Branch is calling on journalists and media workers to join us on Wednesday 27 August at 17:30 opposite Downing Street, where we will honour the courageous reporting of the journalists of Gaza.

We will read out the names of those killed and honour the bravery of our colleagues who continue to report, knowing that they may be killed at any moment.

We express our solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza and demand protection for those reporting, justice, and an end to impunity for the slaughter of journalists in the Gazan genocide.

The reading of the names is the main event. Sadly the "double-tap" airstrike on Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, killing journalists, alongside rescue workers, as they responded to the first "tap", along with further confirmations of earlier deaths by the International Federation of Journalists, brings our count of colleagues killed in Gaza to 222 - plus 2 in the West Bank, 4 in Israel, 9 in Lebanon, 1 in Syria and 3 in Iran.

We will also hear a recorded message from Al Jazeera Gazan reporter Wael Al Dahdouh. Ahmed Alanouq of the Gazan “We Are Not Numbers” project will speak, as will Sangita Myska, late of LBC Radio.

This event will follow the handing in of a letter, setting out demands and questions to Keir Starmer, to 10 Downing Street at 16:00. You are welcome to come to wave us off then, too, if you can. The letter is now co-signed by London Central Branch, NUJ London Magazine Branch, London Digital Media Branch, officers of the FT Group Chapel, Brussels Branch, NUJ Ethics Council and noted film-maker Sarah Beddington.

Please join us when you can.

Please share this widely.

For details of speakers as they are confirmed and information on other branches' statements and events see:
https://www.londonfreelance.org/fl/2508gaza-vigil-2.html

We also urge you to write to Keir Starmer & David Lammy: see Open letter on protecting journalists and defending truth in Gaza on nuj.org.uk

Solidarity vigils

Over the past month, members have been coming together in various ways to support and show solidarity with journalists working in Gaza.

Branches organised vigils and protests across the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe in response to the continued targeted killing of Palestinian colleagues by Israeli forces. Members turned out in large numbers, including 500 people at a vigil in Brussels. They paid their respects, read out the names of fallen colleagues, gave speeches, and, in the case of the London Freelance branch, handed in a letter to 10 Downing Street, with a list of demands and questions for the prime minister. Find our round-up coverage here.

The NUJ also set out various suggested actions members could take, either independently or collectively, to show solidarity. Here are some you can still get involved with:

Donate to the IFJ Safety Fund, which offers financial and medical assistance to journalists around the world - including in Gaza.
Join with branch or chapel members to agree collective statements of solidarity in line with our demands for the NUJ website.
Sign our open letter calling for the UK government to exert serious pressure to protect journalists in Gaza and support an independent investigation to end impunity.

This list is not proscriptive but please ensure that your activity is appropriate and organised with collective support of members and in liaison with your employer as required.

Join the branches summit next week

Branch officers: have you registered for the NUJ branches summit?

TUC Congress

The NUJ will send delegates and present two important motions at the TUC Congress, taking place between 7-10 September. The first will ask Congress to support the NUJ’s AI campaign, which calls for an end to big tech breaching the copyright of journalists, photographers, and other creators, and for AI generated content to be labelled as such. The other motion will urge Congress to continue to stand in solidarity with journalists globally, condemning attacks against media workers wherever they occur, and will call to support a UN convention on the safety and independence of journalists. Watch Congress live here or keep an eye on the NUJ website for highlights from the event.

3) The meeting

Brian Pelan will talk about how he launched VIEW, to “cover issues that have a major effect on society and get readers talking about them”. VIEW magazine is printed and distributed to libraries; they’re at www.viewdigital.org and the team organises events to promote discussion and debate on issues raised by their journalism.

The Branch also needs to elect a Vice-Chair, a second Training Officer and a Welfare Officer. These posts are open to full members.

The Vice-Chair should step in to cover any tasks that the Chair cannot cover - chairing meetings and occasionally communicating with Head Office.

The Training Officer role is what you make it... from tracking down useful trainers and speakers onward.

The Welfare Officer's role is largely signposting sources of assistance. Due to the nature of some issues that arise for members, we would particularly like to have a woman welfare officer.

This meeting can nominate full members of the NUJ for the following positions:

National Executive (London seat - open to members with a London postcode)
Freelance Council (two London seats and East Anglia)

Dear Jan

Welcome to the latest edition of The Journalist. You can read it here.

We have an in-depth look at how AI is being used in news and what it means for the future of journalists’ jobs.

We also report the huge job losses planned by Reach and the NUJ’s plans for industrial action ballots at some Reach publications.

We highlight the large number of protests staged by NUJ branches to mark the terrible loss of journalists’ lives in Gaza.

Other features include what to do as a freelance to fight a complaint to the press regulator IPSO. Other freelance issues are covered in the Freelance supplement, which is available here.

I hope you enjoy this edition.

Christine Buckley

Editor

The Journalist October-November 2025

Featuring articles on the threat of AI to jobs, recognition at Bullivant Media, the NUJ branches summit, and coverage of TUC Congress.

Dear Jan

I’m delighted to say that The Journalist has been named TUC best union journal of the year for a second time. I hope you will enjoy the latest edition which is available here.

Our cover feature looks at the rise of the side hustle with more freelances taking on non-journalistic work to make ends meet.

We also put the state of court reporting in the dock and plan ahead for changes in digital tax return filing. And if you are feeling the effects of the weather at this time of year spare a thought for the reporters and photographers who specialise in capturing extreme weather. On our Patch tells their stories.

You can find the new Freelance supplement here.

I hope you have a happy holiday season and a very good New Year.

Christine Buckley
