Summer Offensive

Urgent appeal
My pleas last week seem largely to have fallen on deaf ears. Although we received a welcome spurt of new subscriptions, when it comes to donations, they are few and far between.

As I never tire of reminding you, we must raise the full £500 over and above receipts from sales and subscriptions each and every month./In fact right now we are particularly in need of hard cash to upgrade our IT equipment, so I was hoping that by today we would already have gone past our £500 target, leaving the best part of a week to pick up at least an extra ton.

No such luck. The last seven days have only brought us £90 (thanks to JK, LP, GF, RD and JB), taking our total to just £305. So, instead of looking forward to a big surplus, I am now left worrying about making our basic target. Not a happy situation.

Comrades, it is time to act. In order for the Weekly Worker to continue playing its indispensable role we need a good response to this urgent appeal: help us go past our £500 target by posting your contribution today.
