Although I’m 1/4th Scot and it’s almost genetic the feeling/yearning for “muh people” to be free from the English, I know full well the only people to benefit from Independence won’t be the Scottish... it’ll be the English. A prime example of “be careful what you wish for... you might get it.”

Scotland has no need to be ‘free’ of the English!.
Scotland JOINED the UK in 1707. Free to join,free to leave...

The Scots have the luxury of full on liberalism right now because they are not in control. If they actually become an independent nation it won't take long to figure out that an actual far-left national government is better in theory than practice.

I'm half Scottish, half English and I agree with you.
This Glasgow result bodes well for the Conservatives in the next General Election - divide and conquer.
