Wondering what this button is at the side of the page?

I don’t run adverts here and don’t particularly want to, but running a site does have a small administrative cost, and a larger one in terms of the time taken to research and write articles, write letters to representatives etc. As I work for myself, this is time that is directly taken away from work projects.

Instead of the adverts then, I’ve chosen to add this button which uses the Ko-Fi service to allow people who want to support content creators to do so through a small payment. In my case, I only accept one-off payments – there are no recurring subscriptions – and your contribution is entirely voluntary.

If you do choose to contribute, I am extremely grateful for your support.
