From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Scots Independent is a monthly newspaper that is in favour of Scottish independence. It was formed in 1926 by the Scots National League (SNL) and switched its allegiance to the National Party of Scotland (NPS) when the SNL joined with them in 1928.
When the NPS merged with the Scottish Party in 1934 to form the Scottish National Party (SNP) they switched to supporting them. The paper is still today by in large pro-SNP (indeed it gives the appearance of being an internal party document, although it technically isn't).
It currently has a circulation of around 6,000 and is read by supporters of Scots independence throughout the world.
