Description

Hello and welcome to the official page for Scotland's new national daily newspaper, The National, the only one that supports the idea of independence for Scotland. The newspaper is a sister to the Sunday Herald, which declared itself in favour of a yes vote in September's referendum way back in May. Ok... the yes campaign failed to win that, but the referendum changed Scotland forever and the constitution battle is being fought on different territory ... for now. Since the vote we have seen a surge in membership of the SNP and other parties which supported independence, and serious problems beset those parties which supported the union. The Labour Party in particular has seen its support dwindle. The party's crisis worsened with the resignation of its leader in Scotland, Johann Lamont, who claimed Labour in London treated the Scottish party as a "branch office". The Sunday Herald was the only mainstream newspaper in Scotland to support independence and throughout the referendum campaign it seemed to us that the lack of media support represented a serious democratic deficit in the country's media. After the referendum many readers asked us to consider launching a daily, pro-independence newspaper... requests which we have answered by launching The National. It will be published five days a week, Monday to Friday. Its future will depend on the support of the wider yes movement. We hope that sales justify continuing publication and that The National becomes a strong, proud and permanent voice in the Scottish media landscape. A total of 1.6 million people voted yes to independence on September 18. We are proud to give them a voice every day. Richard Walker Editor
