Reading, elsewhere

Posted on

As many readers here will know, I write for The National in Scotland, which is the only pro-independence newspaper in that country.

I am proud to do so and to discuss the economics that might underpin Scotland as an independent country, which I think it should be, free from the toxic influence of Westminster.

In that case, I have a favour to ask. Might you consider subscribing to The National, even if you are not Scottish, as I am not?

There are good reasons to do so:

  • You will get journalism that shatters the Westminster perspective on what is going on in the UK as a whole
  • You will get some of the best international journalism you will find anywhere. The National has stood out for its coverage of Gaza, for example, as well as on other issues.
  • You will get solidly left-of-centre opinion pieces.
  • And this is the only paper you will find that regularly publishes modern monetary theory-based economic commentary, which it embraces as editorial policy.

If you'd like to try out a subscription now, visit  thenational.scot/subscribe .

With your subscription, you'll have access to your daily digital replica of the newspaper, including the Sunday edition, along with fewer ads on the website, puzzles, reader rewards and the ad-free app.
