Act now

This months fighting fund urgently needs a boost if we are to hit our target, reports Robbie Rix

With only three days left before the end of March’s fighting fund, we are well short of the £1,500 we need. Despite four more than useful standing orders (thanks to DO, RC, DS and JT) and a handy £25 cheque from KF, our total stands at just £1,104.

Now is the time to act, comrades. We need the extra £400 by noon on Monday April 1. Please go to www.cpgb.org.uk/home/weekly-worker/subscribe and click on the PayPal ‘Donate’ button at the bottom of the page. Or else, if you have an online bank account, make a transfer to account number 00744310 (sort code: 30-99-64).

Of course, I know that our supporters don’t have unlimited funds and many have contributed to our legal appeal. But we do still have to meet our day-to-day running costs and £1,500 represents the difference between what we get in subscriptions or paper sales and what we have to pay out each month.

Last week we had 13,950 online readers, by the way. So as usual there is lots of interest in what we publish, but too few comrades are taking the time to make a donation - and so ensure we can continue to provide the service to the left that so many commend us for.
