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. What should we do with our second vote in 2021? What happens if Westminster says no to indyref2?
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 conversation, register under fake names, and post vile abuse. We’ve had hundreds of emails from you complaining about this, asking us to take steps to ensure that these people aren’t given a platform on our site.
ALMOST 30 years has passed since the cross-party pressure group Scotland United was formed bringing together socialists, nationalists, liberals, communists and Greens together with trade unionists, representatives from the churches and civic society to campaign for a multi-option referendum on Scotland’s future.
Senior figures from the SNP like Mike Russell supported that position and marched alongside STUC general secretary Campbell Christie and a number of Labour MPs building support for the proposition.
This was a good initiative uniting political opponents against the real enemy, the Tories, who had caused so much devastation in our communities and who were entrenched in their opposition to any devolution of power.
