A democratic vote is not going to be enough for that crowd. Scotland has, among other things, a very important bank and much of the UK's nuclear infrastructure. It would also diminish the power and prestige of England - so they will use every trick in the book to make sure such an event doesn't happen. I think it is possible, but it will take much more 'oomph' than most in Scotland likely think to make it a reality. Close elections they can easily fake, and IMO likely did [or were prepared to].
