Appeal to readers: cash needed to fight the cuts


Naomi Byron, Socialist Party finance department

The Socialist Party launched its general election appeal before Christmas. We are aiming to raise £50,000 over the next few weeks to help pay for the leaflets, posters and other material essential to our campaign.

As part of the Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC – see page 2) we are preparing to stand hundreds of anti-cuts candidates throughout England and Wales. TUSC aims to stand in over 1,000 council seats and 100 parliamentary seats to help us get an election broadcast – and campaign for fair coverage from the media.

Donate

To do this we need your help. The Socialist Party has no rich backers. We are appealing to members and supporters to donate in support of the trade unionists, socialists and anti-cuts campaigners who are prepared to be candidates. If you want the chance to vote for a working class alternative, help us raise the money to stand as widely as possible.

You can donate online at socialistparty.org.uk/donate, by phone on 020 8988 8777, or by cheque (made out to “Socialist Party”) to PO Box 24697, London E11 1YD. Please mark your donation for “Election Appeal 2015”.
