One more time!

Would you believe it? We failed to reach our £2,250 fighting fund target for February by exactly £1! But I’m not going to be too upset. After all, with just two days still to go, our running total stood at just £1,796 - in other words, we were £454 short.

But incredibly those last two days saw us better off by £453, thanks to some fantastic last-minute contributions. Particular thanks go to comrades IS and TT for their brilliant three-figure donations, while among other bank transfers there was the £40 from AN, who wrote that this was “to note the fact that I joined the original Communist Party of Great Britain 40 years ago”!

Other bank transfers came from JT (£25), AB and JF (£20 each), SS (£16), IS and MD (£10), and SD (£3), while DB and AC each donated £50 via PayPal, and that well known comrade Hassan, who features regularly in this column, this time contributed a £5 note.

I can’t say how pleased I am that we (almost!) got there, in view of the Weekly Worker’s soaring costs - which is why both our subscription rates and our fighting fund target will be increased very soon! But, in the meantime, we have now started one more month where the target remains the same, so it’s vital that we get there once again!

And after the first five days of March the good news is that we already have £527 in the kitty. Thanks go to AC (£100!), EW (£55), LC (£50), MM (£31), ST, DL and CG (£30 each), RG and RD (£25), DL, MS and MT (£20), BG (£15), RM (£13), MM (£11), AN, JD, DI and CP (£10), not to forget DC and JS (£6). Every one of them were bank transfers.
