The National is about to publish its 1000th edition!
We can't quite believe it ourselves, but your pro-independence daily newspaper is about to hit that very significant milestone this Friday March 16th.
And we're marking the occasion with a special commemorative edition with glossy magazine-style cover, and by launching our new 'Still Yes' National whisky!
Join us as we celebrate The National taking 1000 Steps Closer To Yes:
We'll have details in Friday's paper on how you claim a bottle of what will be our very highly sought-after commemorative whisky, and an exclusive subscription offer for readers which will only be valid this weekend.
Make sure you get down early to pick up your copy of what is sure to be a sell-out edition of The National!
Don't forget, you can back us by also taking out a digital subscription – just click here.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
