STYLISH and secessionist, these new National tea towels are a must-have for all those who want to press the escape key on the Union.
Okay, so achieving independence isn’t as easy as drying the dishes, but these limited-edition homeware items will help you clean up while the Yes movement works on a clean break from Westminster.
The item is a tongue-in-cheek take on a Tory Party dishcloth launched earlier this year.
Featuring Boris Johnson’s image and a Union flag, it bears the legend “Got Brexit Done” and is £12-a-pop.
The National’s “Get Indy Done” version shows a finger set to press an escape button on a keyboard and is available via the paper’s webshop in either black or white for the tidy sum of £8.99.

The release follows earlier launches of National-branded cards, bags, badges and passport covers.
Editor Callum Baird – who always does the dishes in his house – said: “Boris Johnson might like to tell us how he got Brexit done, but we’re telling him the Yes movement is determined to do the same with Scottish independence.”

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
