Fighting Fund

Magnificent
Last month’s fund received a timely boost in the shape of a magnificent £100 donation from comrade JS, who nonchalantly slipped us the extra, without comment, along with £30 for his annual subscription to the paper.

Thank you, comrade. You helped take us well over our £500 target for March, aided and abetted by PJ (£20), TG (£15), JB and SD (£5 each). Our total for the month was a tremendous £609.

But let’s not rest on our laurels. We need the full £500 each and every month and there have been many lows as well as highs. Hopefully April will see another of the latter. We start off with a cheque from comrade SW, who writes: “I have some disagreements with the CPGB, but I think the organisation needs the money at this critical time.” You can say that again, SW. Thanks also to JC, a young comrade from Yorkshire, whose £5 was very much appreciated.

So we start off April £25 to the good. How about some more contributions from our internet readers, 7,100 of whom logged on to our site last week?

By the way, we are still urging all readers to become sellers. The war has opened up a whole new audience for revolutionary ideas. Order bundles of five, 10, 15 papers. Pay us - monthly - for what you sell.
