Support The Socialist on May Day this year

To celebrate International Workers' Day and help the paper to continue reporting the viewpoints of people in struggle, The Socialist appeals to you for a May Day greeting in 2009.

Without the financial backing of any big business or wealthy individual, The Socialist relies on its readers and supporters for providing essential funding.

The Socialist prints May Day greetings every year to show the range of people who are actively campaigning to prevent ordinary people from having to suffer for the policies of the rich. This includes campaigns against attacks on jobs, working conditions, pay, pensions, and for affordable housing and decent public services, as well as many other issues.

Greeting messages need to be sent to The Socialist before Friday 10 April to be guaranteed a place in the 1 May issue of the paper. If payment is also received by this date, the greeting will be certain to be shown on a full-colour page.

Contact circulation@socialistparty.org.uk or 020 8988 8796 for more details, or download material including a greeting rates and appeal form, pledge sheets and trade union branch motion guides, or to give a greeting.
