That's not really true though is it, in pre-SNP days Scotland was heavily Labour whether England was Tories or Labour. Literally never in history has Scotland flipped to Tory just because England was polling for Labour.

True - but I think the point more or less stands. Tories have a very specific presence in Scotland ... realistically, you're not going to see large numbers flipping from SNP to Tory. They'll slip literally anywhere else - Labour, Lib Dem, Green... but the Tory areas are Tory areas, and already voting Tory.
