Need your help

With exactly half the month gone as I write, I have some bad news: we are well below the halfway mark for the Weekly Worker £2,750 monthly fighting fund target for April. To be precise, we have just £1,098 in the kitty.

It’s true that we are nearing that time of the month when a few substantial standing orders come our way, but, unless our readers and supporters step in to help us out, we could be in serious trouble. True, we wouldn’t collapse, but we’d have a major problem if we were several hundred pounds short.

Over the last seven days, a small number of comrades made really good donations: namely, TB, who made a bank transfer of no less than £95, PB, who contributed her usual £80 by standing order, and PM, who donated £50 via PayPal. Other standing orders/bank transfers came from TW (£25), OG (£24), not to mention PM, CC and MD, who each donated £10.

Other PayPal donors were ST (£20), AB (£11), plus SO, AR and GP (£5 each), while another fiver came our way from comrade Hassan, who handed his usual banknote to one of our team. But, unfortunately, that’s the lot - a weekly total of just £355, which is just over half the going rate.

So now we need to really step on the gas, so can you play your part? Why not donate by bank transfer or PayPal, or even send us a cheque - there’s still plenty of time if you do that soon, with two weeks still to go. For more details on any of those ways, please visit our website (address below).

With your help we can do it!
