TO celebrate the beginning of Scotland's summer of independence we are offering our readers a twofold special offer!
Part one is our special pull-out available on Saturday, July 1. We hope independence supporters can use it on their stalls, door-to-door, with family, friends and collegues, and other Yes groups to assist in the campaign.
Second, our flash sale offer! One year from JUST £24. One payment of £24 to secure your exclusive news, opinion, culture, and travel content for a year!

A year from now, actvists will hopefully have a clear strategy from the SNP ahead of the General Election as the leading pro-independence party, polls will be clearer for the Tories, Labour and SNP, we will also possibly have a General Election date but will it be fought by Rishi Sunak...?
No one could have predicted the last year, and we can't predict the next - but we can pledge to be at the front of all the news affecting Scotland and her route to independence.
As well as our quick and reliable coverage, we have a whole host of regular contibutors; Lesley Riddoch, Michael Russell, Kelly Given, Paul Kavanaugh, Kate Forbes, George Keravan, Assa Samaké-Roman, Andrew Tickell, Kirsty Strickland, Richard Murphy, and so many more!
We have also attracted commentators from south of the border such as Caroline Lucas MP and journalist Owen Jones.

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
