Fighting fund target smashed!
Our financial appeal at Socialism 2020 raised a fantastic £50,145.80. Much of the money pledged has now been paid, we would like pledges to be redeemed by 20 December.
In the last month of the quarter there are still opportunities to raise fighting fund. All the money raised will ensure we are even better prepared for the stormy events and class struggle to come in 2021.
Pledges can be paid at socialistparty.org.uk/donates20

Finance appeal
The coronavirus crisis has laid bare the class character of society in numerous ways. It is making clear to many that it is the working class that keeps society running, not the CEOs of major corporations.
The results of austerity have been graphically demonstrated as public services strain to cope with the crisis.
The government has now ripped up its 'austerity' mantra and turned to policies that not long ago were denounced as socialist. But after the corona crisis, it will try to make the working class pay for it, by trying to claw back what has been given.
- The Socialist Party's material is more vital than ever, so we can continue to report from workers who are fighting for better health and safety measures, against layoffs, for adequate staffing levels, etc.
- When the health crisis subsides, we must be ready for the stormy events ahead and the need to arm workers' movements with a socialist programme - one which puts the health and needs of humanity before the profits of a few.
Inevitably, during the crisis we have not been able to sell the Socialist and raise funds in the ways we normally would.
We therefore urgently appeal to all our viewers to click here to donate to our Fighting Fund.
