I can't join a picket line but I will be following other NUJ strike advice such as not reading any Guardian content during the 48 hours #nujsolidarity #savetheobserver
I am on strike today, along with many other journalists from The Guardian and Observer. We have downed tools for 48 hours and will be back at work on Friday. For more information please follow bsky.app/profile/gonu... and @NUJofficial, or visit nuj.org.uk/savetheobserver

Feels a little like my first day at school again (!) but I've took the plunge and set up a Bluesky account. So, hello!
