Not so gloomy

Step up and support the Weekly Worker, says Robbie Rix, every penny helps, so hit that donate button or take out a standing order!

Our April fighting fund was given a big boost this week in the shape of a cheque for £110 from comrade JH, who regrets he is unable to pay more. That’s generous enough as it is, comrade!

JH specifies that this is not for our legal appeal, but a donation towards the “printing and distribution costs of the paper”. He looks forward to the day when the Weekly Worker is available in “every newsagent, supermarket, garage and corner shop in the country”. JH confesses to being a bit “negative and gloomy” in view of the “monumental job” we have to raise awareness - but not so negative and gloomy that he doesn’t think it’s worth sending us a cheque, obviously.

There were two more of those - from HF (£25) and DK (£20). Thanks to all three for their generosity. Among the 12,420 online readers we had last week, two - MD (£10) and DT (£5) gave us a donation via PayPal. Finally we received a total of £140 in standing orders - seven comrades contributing sums ranging from £10 to £30.

All that comes to £310, taking our running total for the month to £532. But, don’t forget, we have that shortfall of £160 to make up from March, so we still need well over £1,000 in less than three weeks. Please help if you can.
