Do not blame the Labour Party's political ineptitude on the SNP or Scottish Nationalism in general. The party is reaping what it has sown thanks to its policies and political practices over the past several decades. Scottish nationalism should be treated separately from the British left in general.
Personally, I see nothing wrong or objectionable about a Scottish desire to secede from the union. The austerity and other assorted right-wing policies, stemming largely from English political domination, should not be imposed upon another nation against its will, nor should they be forced to exit the European Union for which they voted to 'Stay.' Scotland's politics, despite devolution, continue to be dominated by the dictates of a political body composed primarily of parliamentarians, political and economic elite, and a Royal family from another nation. Where is the fairness in that?
