My own financial situation is precarious. I would donate but cannot afford to unfortunately.

I was fired from my job at Bath University, for writing a book critical of Islam.

All my Substack articles are free (apart from the two that have links for ebook downloads of course).

I also have a hesitancy asking for paid subscriptions or donations. I understand that. In reality some people have been extraordinarily generous. It does help us to persevere.

You should have been given a pay rise and a medal for writing a book critical of Islam.

I've subscribed to your Substack Pete. I want to support you. You are a very reasonable voice I see on X and I want to help Britain as best I can.

I am from the US: we are tied in history, language, values, and civilization. Thank you for being so thoughtful with your posts - they speak to me. For what it's worth: thank you for your effort.

I was surprised to discover I wasn't already a paid subscriber. I am now though.

The problem is that there are so many subscriptions to pay for these days. A lot of people are on restricted incomes too. One cannot subscribe to everything. I guess one should weigh up the value offered by all subscriptions and have a pruning every so often.

Understandable. It soon adds up. I can't afford to subscribe to more than a couple.

I'm in a similar position to Kevin above, especially as I was widowed last year and have a very limited income. I can't believe how expensive everything is when there is no one else to share the cost burden. I will if I can, Pete, but don't stop. Please.

Thanks for the response Pete. I’ll have a look and see what I can do.

For some reason your Substack wouldn’t accept the £50 you were asking for on ApplePay Pete. I’ve tried for the third time and it’s gone up to £75. I can justify £50 but not £75.

I tried to subscribe using ApplePay but it said it’s not supported. As others have said I’ll have to cancel others as I don’t have a bottomless pit of cash. But maybe you could look into the ApplePay issue?
