Fighting fund – spring offensive!
The Socialist Appeal editorial board have set a target of £4,000 to be raised this quarter, culminating at conference at the end of the month. We still have some way to go to meeting this target, which is vital for building the forces of genuine Marxism in Britain. To continue advancing Marxist ideas in the Labour movement we can not afford to stand stillfor a moment. The more money we have in, the more effectively we canintervene and build a strong Marxist tendency.
So, a big thanks to the Tyneside Socialist Appeal supporters’ group for their £200 donation, Davy Brown, Edinburgh with another £200, Ron Graves in Peterborough and Nick Toms, London for their £100 each and all the others donations we received in March. Every reader should follow these excellent examples, and reach for their credit cards and cheque books before the end of this month.
We are confident that every reader and seller – and that means you – will respond to this appeal. Remember you are the only source of finance we have or want.
Many thanks,
Jon Avis
