Fighting fund: Withdrawal symptoms

Robbie Rix is back. He's even more back from next week and so is our £1,500 monthly target!

Just a note to say that the Weekly Worker fighting fund will be resuming next week. The paper relies on the £1,500 we raise from our readers every month to survive, but during the CPGB’s two-month Summer Offensive period, which has just ended (see opposite), this sum is included in the overall cash raised by the organisation.

Well, now we are back in business and every donation you make to the Weekly Worker from today will count towards our September fund. I expect those extra three days will take us way over the top!

By the way, it seems that just about all of our readers realised that we were taking our usual two weeks off this year. Normally we get at least one or two comrades emailing in to complain they haven’t had their paper (although that doesn’t seem to happen when we have our Christmas break!).

Anyway, let’s hope readers didn’t encounter too many withdrawal symptoms during our absence. We’re glad to be back!
