Almost halfway there....

Yesterday we launched a bid to sign up 2500 people to the HOPE not hate campaign in 48 hours. It was a tall task but 20 hours into the appeal we have had just over 1000 new people signing up. This is really fantastic. What is just as important is the number of people who sent on the appeal to their friends. Loads of people have done so and this bodes well for the future.

I did have one quite aggressive email from someone is Sussex who thought they she had just received an email from Nick Griffin! She certainly gave me what for but after re-reading the letter so wrote back, explained her mistake and promised to send on the sign-on forms to her friends.

Obviously I’ll keep you informed on how we are doing with our target but in the meantime please, please, get your friends and colleagues to sign up.
