IT’S BEEN a while since we wrote about our campaign to win new readers. This isn’t due to lack of activity – far from it.  The workload at one time had quite distinct bursts of activity particularly around key calendar dates and conferences, but with the continued strike wave and since the crisis in Gaza began there has been no time for complacency.  

Our ambassadors on the ground the readers and supporters’ groups, Communist Party branches/regions and trades councils have been taking advantage of the editor’s decision to always provide papers for free distribution at picket lines and demonstrations and stalls supporting the people of Gaza.  

This weekend we are sending papers to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Torquay, Newcastle, and Shrewsbury. Make sure that ordering the paper is high on the agenda when organising any event.
