THOUGH I have my issues with the SNP, they will get my vote tomorrow. For this is not about party likes/dislikes. It’s about Scotland saying “we’ve had enough!”.
Sure, we’ve said it before – and been ignored. So we may ask “why bother?”
We bother because it is our voice. They may not want to listen to our voice, but if we have none it is easier for them to say “see, there is no wish for independence!” But if we shout out loud with our vote – it is them covering their ears.

Now is the mess of Brexit, and whatever happens today it will not be our freedom. But if Boris leads a xenophobic dystopian reality – more reason to say “No!”
In a hung parliament we will have levers to squeeze them. Whatever, we must vote for the best chance to put them in a corner and move closer to 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
