Wot No UK Winners!

Unless I missed someone, although there were some good Irish winners, there appeared to be not one U.K. winner.
Don't the U.K. press photographers enter
these days?
Is it time that the UK British Press Photographer of the Year Awards was resurrected?
British Telecom were joint sponsors with the BIPP when it last ran around 1990.

no photos, no links

For a magazine dedicated to photography, i find it odd that you publish a text list of prize-winning images with only ONE SINGLE image shown.

What is it, copyright issues?

There's not even a link to the WPP site!
