Socialist Worker is bold and clear in its news coverage and it helps us to understand what is going on and how we can change it to meet our needs.
Tony Benn

Across Europe people are rebelling against austerity. Whenever we take action in Spain we can be sure that Socialist Worker will help spread the news and organise solidarity. We have been inspired by your coverage of the student revolt and strikes in Britain, and strengthened by the knowledge that this is an international movement.

Activist of the Indignados movement and member of the Barcelona Workers Assembly

Socialist Worker is committed to a socialist alternative. It deserves our support.
István Mészáros
Marxist academic and author

Drunk with joy as we are at the misery of Rupert Murdoch and the travails of the most pernicious wing of the press, there’s no better time to celebrate and support a newspaper that fights for people and justice, not profit and empire.

Socialist Worker has played an important and much needed role in promoting trade union and community campaigns both nationally and internationally against injustice and inequality, not least those in response to Con-Dem cuts and their attacks on the poorest and most vulnerable in society.

Making the news without tapping a single dead girl’s phone. Without Socialist Worker there would hardly be a scrap of plurality in the British Press.

Socialist Worker has always been an essential source for Egyptian socialists to stay updated with international news of struggle, building solidarity with our local campaigns. It continues to be at the heart of workers’ fights not just in Britain, but across the globe.

Socialist Worker is a unique kind of newspaper. It doesn’t hack people’s phones, and it doesn’t bribe police officers. Instead, it talks the truth, which these days can be even more dangerous.
Terry Eagleton
Marxist academic and author

Today more than ever, Socialist Worker remains a vital resource for the left

Workers in Greece have been leading the resistance against austerity – so now papers and politicians across Europe blame us for the financial crisis. Workers are fighting back – we have had twelve general strikes in the last year.

International solidarity is crucial for us, and so is Socialist Worker. I urge you to support the paper that helps us take on the bosses’ lies, that spreads our message to workers in Britain and makes the case for the alternative.
Tiana Andreou
Greek public sector trade unionist

Socialist Worker provides a service to the whole progressive and Labour movement. It deserves widespread support for its continuing work.
Billy Hayes
CWU general secretary

Socialist Worker takes great risk in its campaigning journalism. Now she asks a little help from you. The newspaper that launched (and supported) a thousand appeals is appealing. The present scandals embroiling the press arise from corruption and greed.

Socialist Worker stands on the principles from when it was founded and this appeal is presented with the openess and transparency that SW prides itself upon. In the current climate please now more than ever help it along.
