Falling behind

Robbie Rix reports on the Weekly Worker fighting fund

Still no sign of the big guns! Last week I remarked that just a couple of fat cheques would not only provide a welcome boost to our July total, but also help make up for the deficit of the last two months.

Unfortunately they have not arrived yet (I am sure they are on the way). So, with only £56 received in this week’s postbag, we are in danger of falling behind for a third consecutive month.

Comrades, the Weekly Worker will not fold. But cashflow problems will put at risk our ability to expand, such as through the 10-pagers of the last two weeks.

Thanks this week to HF (£15) and to RD and NB (£10 each). Our July total stands at £248, with less than 10 days to go to break through our £400 target.
