Jill's coverage primarily focuses on government & politics, with a significant emphasis on legal policy and regulation. She has covered topics such as the doctors' strike, right to protest, democracy, UK politics, and Church of England.
Given this focus, she is likely to be interested in pitches related to political developments in the UK or other countries. Topics such as legislative changes, government decisions impacting citizens’ rights or protests are also likely to catch her attention. Additionally, she may be open to stories about legal challenges or regulatory issues within governmental systems.
As Jill does not have a specific geographic focus mentioned but covers international events like Europe’s first liver transplant surgeon Roy Calne passing away at 93 years old; hence relevant global political news could also pique her interest.
