Independent. Scottish. Evidence-led.

SÙIL ALBA is an independent Scottish investigative journalism publication being built around evidence, accountability, transparent methods and careful separation of fact from claim.

Our work focuses on public-interest questions involving institutions, justice, public services, communities and subjects where misinformation or incomplete official reporting can distort the public record.

We are independent and do not imply endorsement, accreditation or affiliation that we do not hold.

What independence means here

Independence is not neutrality toward evidence. It means conclusions should follow the strongest available evidence rather than political, institutional or social pressure.
