Summer Offensive 
Challenge
“Mindful of the financial appeal in the
last Weekly Worker,” writes comrade NB, “I have increased
the standing order which I currently pay as a subscription to
the paper.” The comrade has doubled his contribution to £12 a
quarter, paid in monthly instalments of £4.
“I know it’s not a huge increase,” he continues,
“ but I am still a member of the SWP with all the financial obligations
that entails. Nevertheless I have found the Weekly Worker
a valuable source of information and I welcome its polemical character,
whether or not I agree with it all.”
And we welcome both your kind words
and the increased donation. Yes, an extra £2 a month is not a
vast amount, but if all those with standing orders did the same
it would make a tremendous difference to our £500 monthly fund.
And, as I keep saying, if just a few of the thousands who read
us each week gratis on the web were to chip in with donations,
it would be an enormous help. Last week we had 10,541 hits. I
would be more than happy with £1 from each one of them!
A challenge then. Are there 20 readers
out there in cyberspace prepared to offer £5 per month? Either
donate through our PayPal facility or email me and I will send
you a standing order form. And of course those who take the printed
version are not barred from taking up the challenge either.
Last month ended with a surplus of £85,
thanks to gifts from KP (£25), MN and FT (£20 each). This month
has started slowly with just three donations: £30 from JG, plus
an extra tenner from both SW and JH, who added it to their annual
subs. Thanks a lot, comrades. We start February with £50 towards
our target.
