They then should have every right to fight for Scotland and to influence all they can as to govt; at westminster as much as anyone else elected to westminster in a democratic election.
Why also should a party that has seen its voters almost wipe out entirely the Conservative representation there,then be expected to in any way help shore it up in govt;
For Scotland and Wales, the Labour party will be the main UK party that gets the higher support of the 3 present main parties n those countries,so why should the SNP and Plaid Cymru not be able to, as full members of the UK, work with the party more in line with their policies, and keep the one a world away from what they would like to see 'out' if they can.
Or is it that the UK just should have one form of govt;
No wonder we cannot get changes to the voting system in the UK with views like that,which would discriminate against parties legitimately elected in democratic elections for westminster, from 'all' the parts and all countries of the UK.
