Interesting this, looks like Polly Toynbee’s feeling the pinch a bit.
"Guardian editor Alan Rusbridger himself intervened after
staffer Toynbee failed to ask permission to write her column for
Haymarket charities and voluntary sector weekly, Third Sector, which started last week.
Rusbridger said that the rule was staff should not contribute to titles that compete for readers or advertisers."
That’s the usual reason to go off freelancing isn’t it? Get a little extra dosh?
