GOOD morning, comrades — and welcome to your regular fortnightly update on the solidarity and generosity powering our 95th Anniversary Appeal for the Morning Star.
Thank you to everyone who helped raise £890, pushing our total to £10,579. Special appreciation to the two comrades who sent £95 each for our 95th year, to Paddington RMT for its magnificent £200, and to the readers who contributed £200, £100, £100, £50, £25, £10, £10 and £5. Your solidarity keeps the people’s paper strong, proving once more that collective action matters.
With Stumbling Starmer’s premiership hanging by a thread and his tepid rivals hot on plots but cold on everything else, the Morning Star remains steadfast: for public ownership, peace, trade union power and international solidarity.
In moments of political drift, our movement needs an uncompromising voice rooted in struggle — and that voice is yours. At a time when confusion reigns in Westminster, clarity comes from the organised working class and the media it sustains.
Every pound you donate strengthens Britain’s only reader-owned socialist daily. Every workplace collection, union branch whip-round or community event shows that working-class organisation endures long after the Westminster chatter subsides.
