THE National will this week launch a McCrone Report special – and a major energy series.
A bumper 48-page edition tomorrow will kick off the drive, as we republish the McCrone Report in full, highlighting to Scots what was stolen from this country.
Yessers up and down the country have bulk-ordered thousands of copies of that newspaper to spread this message.
You can bulk buy copies now too!
This is the important part for Yes groups and party branches: You can now pre-order bulk-buy copies to help spread the message.

You can pre-order via this link.
Our series throughout the week will answer some key questions, too.
Why is Scotland, an energy-rich nation, facing a horrendous cost of living crisis and the worst decline in living standards on record?
What kind of renewables potential does Scotland have, and how could Scotland’s people benefit from its use – both through environmental advantages and fair distribution of profits?
Where have the profits from Scotland’s oil gone, and how do we stop history from repeating itself with the rest of our natural resources?
We’ll start by travelling back 49 years, to when the UK prime minister received the McCrone Report on the astonishing wealth of Scotland’s oil. It was hushed up for decades in a bid to suppress support for independence.
Our series will then dig into exactly how that squandering of oil wealth harmed us – to the extent that its ramifications are felt in the cost of living crisis – and how the UK Government threatens Scotland’s ability to move to net zero.
To make sure that message reaches as many people as possible, we’ll be dropping the paywall on our website for the duration.
We hope you’ll join our efforts to spread the shocking truths!
