Genuine debate

As usual, week two in every month is nowhere near the best, when it comes to the Weekly Worker fighting fund. This time we received just £333 towards our £2,750 target for November, taking our running total up to £780. That, of course, means we still need to raise just short of £2,000 in the last 17 days of the month!

But, as I always say, I’m still optimistic. I know that the real build-up almost always comes nearer the end of the month - so expect a totally different story next week!

This week, in fact, we had 18 donors, making things a lot better than they would have been if the number had been nearer the usual size. Thank you, comrades PM (£50), ST (£20), AB (£11), MH (£10), TO (£8), JV (£7) and GP, NL, SO and AR (£5 each). All those made their contributions via PayPal. Then we had the comrades who donated by standing order or bank transfer: PB (£80), DV and NH (£30 each), NB (£25), IS (£12), and SM, PM and CC (£10).

So, not unusually, we’re well below the going rate, but expect things to pick up very soon! In the words of HJ, who’s just set up a new subscription, “I’ve never known a left paper so committed to genuine debate, which is what we really need, isn’t it?”

You’ve got it, comrade! Conducting such debate is the only way we can find the answers our movement needs so badly. The question is: ‘How can we build a mass working class movement that will really take us forward?’

So don’t look elsewhere - join us in the fight for such a movement, headed by a principled Marxist party, by ensuring that the Weekly Worker can continue playing its key role. Please help us out - go to the web address below if you need more information on how you can do that.
