Step on the gas

Readers will recall that we narrowly failed (by just £3!) to reach our new £1,750 fighting fund target in May, but, to be honest, the way things stand at the moment, we’re way behind the going rate for June.

After a pretty good first four days of the month, when we picked up a useful £481, things aren’t looking quite so positive a week later. True, we received quite a few handy donations - thanks go to comrades BO (£35), DV (£30), RD (£12) and IS, SM, PM and CC (£10 each), who all contributed either by standing order or one-off bank transfer.

Then there were US comrade ST (£20), MH (£10), AK (£8), PE and JVS (£7 each), who used PayPal, and finally that comrade whose name regular readers will be more than familiar with - comrade Hassan, who handed his usual fiver to one of our team.

But I’m afraid all that only adds up to £174, taking our running total for June to just £655 - less than a quarter of the target with over a third of the month gone! So now we really need to step on the gas. True, the next couple of weeks of the month usually see some very handy standing orders, but they alone won’t see us home, the way things stand right now.

So let me appeal once again to all those readers of ours who value the Weekly Worker so much for its principled Marxist politics and incessant campaigning for what we really need - a mass Communist Party, based on genuine democratic centralism, bringing together all Marxists in one single organisation.
