I guess this headline is because The National (Scotland) is a Scottish national newspaper that might ride any horse if they see it as helping Scottish independence from the UK.
- tptacek 11y agoWell, now I like the article more. :)
- raesene4 11y agoto provide some context on the newspaper that this article is on. The national is a newspaper specifically set up at the time of the Scottish Referendum to provide a more nationalist viewpoint to counter the perception that the mainstream UK media had a Unionist slant.
- Marazan 11y agoA minor quibble in that is was setup after the referendum to try to cater for the 45% of people who voted for Independence given that no daily paper in Scotland backed Independence.
- TallGuyShort 11y agoYeah - that angle bleeds through pretty heavily in the quotes. "This is what an independent Scotland should insist on"
