Forgetful

Robbie Rix reminds us that a tenner each from a dozen appreciative readers would help no end

We pulled in a handy £212 in total over the last week, raising our fighting fund total for March to £337. But this is a some distance behind where I would like to be, as we need to raise £1,250 and we are rapidly approaching the halfway mark for the month. Thanks go to ST (£20), DL (£20), MP (£30), GR (£15) and BK (£10) for their more than useful cheques.

Then there was a total of £117 received in standing orders, including an excellent £50 from RT. But there were no donations via our website over the last seven days, despite the fact that 14,347 people read us online. This is definitely an area where there is room for a good deal of improvement. Comrade BK writes: “Thought it was about time I showed you my appreciation. Sorry it can’t be more.” No need to apologise, comrade. A tenner each from a dozen equally appreciative readers would help us no end. The problem is, though, the other 11 keep forgetting how much they appreciate the Weekly Worker!
