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. Weâve 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 arenât really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversation, register under fake names, and post vile abuse. Weâve had hundreds of emails from you complaining about this, asking us to take steps to ensure that these people arenât given a platform on our site.
