Into the swing of things

There are now just a few days left before we increase both our subscription charges and the Weekly Worker fighting fund target. Starting on April 1, the monthly subscription for UK readers will be £8 and for those overseas £14, while the monthly fund target will be £2,750.

In the meantime, we need, first of all, to reach the current target of £2,250 and the good news is we are very close to getting there, with the March running total standing at £2,128. In other words, we now need less than £100 in five days. But, of course, it would be a good idea if we could get somewhere near that £500 increase this month - let’s get into the swing of things!

There were no less than four three-figure donations received in the last week - thanks very much, comrades SK, PM, LM and JC, while in addition there was another £70 from JC, £50 from AG, £20 from DR, £10 from TT and £8 from MD. All the above contributions came via standing order or bank transfer, but in addition three comrades used PayPal - thank you also, AC (£50), ST (£30) and GD (£6), Finally, that familiar name, comrade Hassan, handed his usual fiver to one of our team.

All that came to an incredible £963 in one week! It just shows that the new target is not beyond our reach - especially as there are still five days left to go soaring past it and see if we can reach the new target a month early! Please go to the web address below to find out how you can play your part.

As for the new subscription rates, all the details you need are at weeklyworker.co.uk/worker/subscribe.

Meanwhile, a reminder to existing subscribers - please make sure you increase your payment to the new rates, beginning on April 1 - from the date your previous one expires, if you currently have an annual or six-monthly sub. If you pay monthly, then the increase takes effect on the date it is due in April, of course.

Please help the Weekly Worker play its essential role!
