Just a quick post to let you know that our newspaper graphics team - Michael Robinson, Jenny Ridley , Paul Scruton , Mark McCormick , myself and designer Kari Pedersen - has won awards at the prestigious Malofiej18 graphic design competition in Pamplona. The prizes were: • Silver: for our 'what we pay them' centre spread • Bronze for our graphic on the UK's debt mountain • Bronze for our collection of wallcharts - which you can buy here... Not to blow our own horns… Well, OK then, I will - we were the only British newspaper to win anything in the awards, which are traditionally dominated by the excellent New York Times and National Geographic .
