    *** UPDATE *** UPDATE *** UPDATE ***

    I promised a further update in early December, so here it is:

    The story so far.......

    On 20 November, total receipts since we launched the Protest Fund in January 2016 were just over £44,000. Following the announcement of Target £50k we had a great response, receiving over £3,500 in just 5 days. This brought the total receipts to £47,682 on 25 November.

    By today, 6 December, we had received a further £1,439 bringing total receipts to £49,121. Many individuals contributed to this and the sale of new protest merchandise really helped to swell the coffers.

    Thanks everyone - that is brilliant progress given all the expenses we have leading up to Christmas.

    Can we make it to the £50k mark? Can we smash through that target before we enter 2017? Let's hope so!

    Just to remind everyone:

    Well I was going to wait until the end of the advent calendar, but after today's efforts from Nug, I had to put in fifteen quid to the protest fund. Great work at bringing some festive cheer to us all.

    I would like to buy one, could we have sent to James Bowers?
    The Charlton Upbeat that went missing a while back, I have no contact details so maybe some could help me with that.

    Do you not get what I'm saying though? I respect everyone has their own opinion, and I haven't shot him down for that at all.

    Consider it this way: I've been outspoken against the regime, I'd look like a bit bizarre if I posted tomorrow saying "Yeah, the regime have really tried their best but I think it's time we began to protest". Why dress up the opinion that you've always held, and make it look as though you've recently changed your mind but you used to think the opposite?

    Nah mate, that's my point... he never changed his mind, but he made it sound like he did?

    Either way, doesn't really matter - I just thought it was weird!

    Sold 4 - possibly 5 so far so that will be £22.50 for the fund so far. I'll pay it in on Tuesday along with any other orders we might get.
