The Scottish Daily News ceased publication only six months after launch.

It was hailed as Britain’s first worker-controlled, mass-circulation daily, formed as a workers’ cooperative by 500 of the 1,846 journalists, photographers, engineers, and print workers who were made redundant in April 1974 by Beaverbrook Newspapers when the Scottish Daily Express closed its printing operations in Scotland and moved to Manchester.
