Sign of the times

Or today, at least.

'The National' was given the status of mainstream paper in Hermiston Gate Tesco's this morning. There are usually a few in the low, less visible, upright sections of the stand, often hidden behind a rival publication. Today there were many more copies, lying flat and highly visible.

In Glasgow this afternoon, The National had a rally for independence with speakers from across the Indy spectrum.

(If you are not familiar with Scotland's press, The National is the only daily that supports, is critical friend of and gives voice to the independence movement)
