The next step
The next step (for some time abbreviated to tns) was the monthly review of the Revolutionary Communist Tendency which became the weekly paper of the Revolutionary Communist Party.
The next step was first published in December 1979 as a monthly review and was wound up at number 57 in March 1985 when it became a weekly, just after the end of the 1984/85 Miners Strike.[1] According to the British Library the weekly version of the paper began publication in 1985. the first edition held by the BL is that of 26 April 1985.[2] the BL notes that the name was changed in 1988 removing the abbreviation from the title long with the reference to the RCP. the next step continued in publication until 25 February 1994 around two years before the dissolution of the RCP in 1996.[3]
