This is our Diamond Anniversary issue - No.60 in its present format. Twenty-three years ago, the Party’s Guardian publication was changed from a newspaper-style broadsheet into the more compact A4 size Guardian Bulletin. This was at the instigation of Don Bethune, who edited the first issue in February 1988. In November 1988 the editorial baton was passed to the current editor. Five years later, the Bulletin suffix was dropped and in 2004 its changing style was reflected by the use of the present name.
