The Alba Party has said it will step-up its ground campaign as leader Alex Salmond claimed it is being “blacked out” by the BBC.
Mr Salmond has railed against broadcasters during the campaign for next week’s Holyrood election after Alba was not given a place in the televised leaders’ debates.
A ruling this week by broadcasting regulator Ofcom said the BBC’s approach to its coverage “did not raise concerns”.
The BBC said “rigorous” processes govern its election coverage and Ofcom had found it has given Alba “due weight” so far.
Mr Salmond accused the regulator of having “effectively surrendered its role as a custodian of broadcasting fairness”.
