UPDATE: THIS OFFER HAS NOW ENDED
WITH the indyref2 campaign well under way, Scotland's ONLY pro-independence newspaper is offering YOU a 30-day free trial!
Following Angus Robertson pointing to October 2023 as the date for an independence referendum, there has never been a better time to subscribe to The National.
Join us to celebrate Scotland's impending freedom while keeping up to date with all the goings-on from the Yes movement and beyond.
In your 30-day free premium plus trial, you will gain access to all of our exclusive content, from interviews with politicians and comment from leading indy figures, to deep dives into the Yes camp and analysis on how the future could look as Scotland heads for independence.
Bringing you all the latest from the worlds of Holyrood and Westminster, we also reveal just how bad Boris Johnson's Tory Government is for people across the country ON THE DAILY.
But we aren't just about politics... a subscription to The National is perfect for anyone who loves Scotland!
In the coming weeks, we will have reams of content on all things Scottish, from the 150th Open held in St Andrews to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and SO. MUCH. MORE.
And if this wasn't enough, Premium Plus users have full access to the ad-free app including the ability to cater content to the themes you prefer through topic selector and you can save, download and share content.
HOW TO SUBSCRIBE
When you head over to our subscriptions page at https://www.thenational.scot/subscribe/ you’ll see three options:
Our Premium subscription
Our Premium Plus subscription
Our Print Only subscription
Our 30-day free trial can be found under the “Premium Plus” plan – again, that’s free for 30 days, then £9.99 monthly afterwards or £91 for a whole year if you choose to stick with us.
National editor Callum Baird said: “We’re really proud of our reporting – from the effect of Brexit on businesses to the latest from communities up and down Scotland.
“We’ve also got Scotland’s top range of columnists, whose analysis is a key companion to a busy year for the country and for independence.
“There’s so much more, too, which is why we’re offering this 30-day free trial – we’d love to see more people joining The National family as we move towards an independent Scotland.”
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
