Meanwhile PA Media Group last month repaid the £1.35m it received between April and December last year.
HMRC did not initially name any companies claiming furlough cash – covering 80% of a worker’s salary if they are put out of work, sometimes to be topped up by their employer – because of taxpayer confidentiality.
It has been able to do so since December because of a Treasury direction made under the Coronavirus Act 2020 when the scheme was extended.
In December and January the Guardian was the only national newspaper publisher to still be claiming furlough cash – somewhere between £50,000 and £100,000 each month.
It has now revealed it decided to return all the cash after revenues for the 2020/21 financial year remained “largely flat” on a better-than-expected £225m (£223.5m in 2019/20).
The Scotsman and Yorkshire Post owner was bought on 31 December for £10.2m by former Local World boss David Montgomery who has begun implementing a new localised strategy for the group.
The next biggest recipients of furlough cash in December were The Guardian, Archant and Midland News Association which all received between £50,000 and £100,000.
The Guardian instigated plans in July to cut 12% of its workforce as it expected a £25m revenue hit because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Advertising, Guardian Jobs, physical events and print were the hardest hit areas of the business and at that time about 100 staff were on furlough.
At the time it said the endowment fund which underwrites its losses had shrunk from £1.013bn to £954m.
As developers, we’re constantly learning new languages and frameworks. But how can you structure this learning to ensure maximum benefit while still progressing? Here’s how you can devise your own curriculum to keep moving in the right direction.
After completing a bootcamp in March 2019, I was overwhelmed by the choice of frameworks, libraries, languages, and courses I had to choose from to continue independent learning and hopefully score myself one of those elusive junior developer jobs. Almost everyone I spoke with had a different opinion on what was important and worth pursuing, but most of them agreed that learning ‘the fundamentals’ was important, while never really specifying what they were.
